Poorly Worded- Webster U.

<p>I posted this in the Webster Sub-forum, but I got no answer to my question, so maybe y'all could help me out:</p>

<p>On the Webster U. website for the Musical Theater Auditions, I found this referring to the singing portion for off-campus auditioners:</p>

<p>"Off-campus—auditioners should present their vocal selections with taped accompaniment. Off-campus auditioners must additionally provide a cassette tape containing two musical selections of contrasting nature. This tape will be submitted to the musical theatre faculty for their evaluation."</p>

<p>When they say "the additional cassette tape", is that suggesting that they want a recording of me singing the songs on a tape? If so, do they want the full version, or the cuts we make to the music?</p>

<p>I did email the theater dept., but I haven't gotten a response yet and it's been almost a week</p>

<p>Call them tomorrow.</p>

<p>I think I remember others discussion this in the past, and yes, I believe they want a recording of you singing your songs. But as amwq suggests, the only way to be sure is to call them. After going through a lot of these web sites with my own kid, I have to say that some schools do a heck of a better job than do others in being clear in laying out their instructions. And the way some of the web sites are laid out -- oy vey! it's hard to even figure out how to get the info you need.</p>

<p>I got this email back from Carrie Indelicato:</p>

<p>Robert,
Thank you for inquiring with Webster University. You will need to bring two CD's or tapes with you to audition off campus. One for your accompaniment and one with you singing either the entire song or the 16 measures you perform for your audition. Whichever is more convenient for you. We require the CD with your singing on it to bring back to our audition panel at the home campus.</p>
