Being Alive

I chose this song for my singing class (Stagebridge) here in Oakland and I wanted something that would challenge me. I certainly got that! Sondheim isnt easy to sing because he has a tendency to change keys in the middle of a song but, I worked hard, learned the lyrics, felt the lyrics and was able to finally perform the song well enough to receive a standing ovation. But, I couldnt have done so without the music sheets I received from Music Notes. I was able to choose the proper key in which to sing, for the piano accompaniment and the full set of lyrics. Amazing!

The whole song

I love that this one includes the whole song, and not just the second part where he sings without the interjections of his friends.
