My experience has told me (as well as teachers, coaches, etc.) to sing what you sing WELL. They are more interested in hearing a well-produced tone that they can work with rather than repertiore that may or may not impress them. Vocal acrobatics are above and beyond that.
If I have 2 pieces along the same lines that I sing equally well, I always choose the lesser-known one, and have almot always been happy with that choice.
I wish you the best of luck on your audition!!!
