I was notified of a local theater production hosting a staged reading and I wanted to audition. The auditions aren’t for another few weeks, but as part of the audition, I need to sing 32 bars of a modern musical song and then give a conflicting one minute monologue. I can handle the monologue, but what the hell is a bar?

Ok, I’m an actual musician (unlike the two before me…..) a bar is a measure. It’s called that because of the literal bar that denotes the measures. A 32 bar solo is a pretty decent length, but also not crazy. Probably 1 minute at most, but that really depends on he tempo.
