Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: preferrably not high range songs!

Out Here on My Own from Fame, Mein Herr or Don't Tell Mama from Cabaret, On My Own from Les Miserables, there is a collection of musical theatre songs called the Singers Anthology that are grouped by vocal type and the piano accompaniment is in the original score key so you can reliably practice with a soundtrack. As far as pop goes Brittney is an alto, Toni Braxton an altho 2, and although Mariah Carey claims she has five octives her stuff is mostly in an alto 1 range.

"You Light Up My Life" by Debbie Boone is a good one for altos. What are you looking for, exactly?
