<p>Yes - as with any older threads it makes sense to read the most recent postings rather than ones from five years ago. And I did suggest that the OP check with their schools as they most likely have updated “do not use” lists. But there are some general principles that haven’t changed in the last five years - don’t do anything currently on Broadway, don’t do songs with complicated accompaniment (many of Jason Robert Brown and Sondheim’s songs fall in this category), look at golden age music if you haven’t already, etc, etc.</p>
