Both! I kinda want things that are obscure, interesting, wild and crazy like The Great American Trailer Park Musical. Vocal range doesnt matter. Everything sounds good in my voice :)
Sing a mash up of The Queen of the Night Aria and Ol' Man River in their original keys and see if it sounds good in your voice. Everyone has a vocal range, what is yours?
What is "obscure"? Given Phil's nonadvanced age, there likely is a world of scores with which he is not familiar. Has phil made it through the R&H catalog? Cy coleman? Lerner & Lowe? I never would have discovered Baby without this board. Phil should just start with each tony nominated score since 1949.
