onstage’s point is a good one. My D had a Sondheim uptempo she loved. She felt comfortable using it at some auditions that she knew wouldn’t be a problem while others specifically asked to stay away from “difficult” music, (ie Sondheim…etc.) Knowing she had to replace it for some auditions anyway she searched high and low and found another piece she liked as much or more. With that said, there was no reason to do the Sondheim at all since it is “iffy” for any accompanist. Since you’ll need to replace the piece for one school you might find yourself finding something you like equally or more. You can always have the overdone piece as a backup.
