Between Her Thighs (from Teeth): Piano Vocal

Intimate and probing, with the kind of character specificity that modern Broadway demands. The song pulls you into a personal moment while maintaining theatrical impact.

Singers preparing audition material or advanced soloists building a contemporary repertoire. This works well for voice students tackling modern musical theater writing and pianists expanding beyond traditional standards.

• Treat the piano part as a character itself. The accompaniment sets the emotional temperature, so coordinate closely with your pianist about tempo and rubato choices.
• Build your dynamic arc carefully. Resist the urge to sing loud early; save your full instrument for moments where the text demands it.
• Ground yourself in the lyrical context. Understanding the dramatic situation will shape your phrasing choices more than any technical instruction.

Feature this in a recital devoted to contemporary musical theater, or program it as a solo moment within a larger concert of Broadway selections. The seven pages make it a substantial solo without requiring a full act context.

• Performing contemporary Broadway musical theater style
• Balancing intimacy with theatrical projection
• Collaborative interpretation with a pianist
• Character-driven phrasing and emotional nuance
