Act 1 songs of musicals

In Drama we have to chose 3 songs from musicals for the class to perform.

  1.  Non-stop - Hamilton                                                                                                                       Non-stop is a song where pretty much everyone from Act 1 all sing and there's overlapping lyrics and has no limit of people needed. The problem is there are a few high note that can be hard to reach. Also there are a parts that are sung without an ensemble. 
  2. Why we build the wall - Hadestown                                                                                           This song isn't as upbeat as the other two songs and there isn't any high notes so it's not too hard and most of the time your singing with others so it's perfect for a group who doesn't really want to sing. It is a bit more of a boring and gloomy song but it's good for people who aren't really into singing. There's one lead that has a few solo parts and the rest is as group. 
  3. The Abduction - Natasha, Pierre & the great comet of 1812                                                        Really almost any song from this musical could work. Most of them have ensemble parts and some have solo parts for people who want to sing solo. There are quite a few parts too. There are a few high notes and also some long note but nothing too major. The other songs in this musical I would suggest are BalagaPrologue and possibly The great comet of 1812 which I believe is the final song.
