What are some good songs to choreograph a contemporary or jazz solo?
posted in Entertainment |Question by iHeartBlueberri♥: What are some good songs to choreograph a contemporary or jazz solo?
I’m basically looking for songs similar to Almost Lover (by Fine Frenzy) or Cant Help Falling In Love (cover by Ingrid Michaelson) or Do It Now (Also by Ingrid) or Florence the Machine. But any upbeat songs are welcomed! And so are youtube videos of really good solos! Thanks!
And you can give tips as well for the choreo, etc.
