YouTube entry for the New York City Gay Men's Chorus - Big Gay Idol competition!

This is my entry for the New York City Gay Men's Chorus Big Gay Idol competition -- "Maybe This Time" by John Kander and Fred Ebb from the movie musical "Cabaret."

I was invited to submit my entry for this competition after Marquee Five's February 25th performance of our tribute to Kander & Ebb "We Can Make It: The Songs of Kander & Ebb." Two gentlemen from NYCGMC saw me sing "Maybe This Time" in the show and invited me to take part in this contest. So here's my submission! This performance isn't very much changed from our Don't Tell Mama show...maaaaaybe a bit "smaller" for the camera. In any event, my concentration is on a general build and the emotional struggle as well as the traditional big "Diva" notes and ending. It would be awesome if I was chosen to be one of the 3 finalists in either the March 25th or the March 26th shows, and even more thrilling to be chosen to do the finale with the entire chorus behind me! If I do get to perform with the NYCGM Chorus, I'll get the opportunity to work with their Music Director and adjust my choices to their artistic vision. Very exciting!
