[NEohioPAL] Musical audition song appropriateness

[Ken Milota- Sweda Realty]

I have always wondered a few things about selecting a song for a musical audition.
   
  Is it important to pick a song to sing from the same genre of the musical you are trying out for? and why?....
   
  Would a director and/or musical director prefer a song according to the show style or the best song to show off your voice range?
   
  If someone were to audition for a classical musical would it be okay to sing a song from a modern musical?
   
  Also, what is your general opinion of picking a song from the actual show in which you are auditioning?
   
  I always believed that picking a song for the role you are auditioning for can give the director the impression that you are going to have your own vision of the role that the director doesn't see eye to eye with you on.
   
  Any thoughts?
