 Truly Definitive July 8, 2000
14 out of 14 found this review helpful
I bought this book years ago on the request of my vocal coach. It has proved to include most of the classic songs from broadway that a singer in the musical theatre could hope for. A few downfalls are that the more obscure songs are not likely to be found in this collection, and songs from more recent productions are not included. I think Les Miserables is the most current inclusion in this collection. To conclude, however, this is a great source for all the traditional great broadway classics, and I would highly reccomend it.
Buy this! December 11, 2006
Love Christmas (EAST Coast COLD rural, USA)
Terrific book of Broadway favorites. Bought it for my teenage daughter and she loved it!
Fabulous collection! April 6, 2010

I bought this book to use at gigs as mostly background type music. The arrangements are wonderful...easy to sight read, simple to improvise on and they sound great. The first time I used it, I had many people coming up and asking me what book I was using. There's a wide variety of songs and musicals in it, catering for a variety of tastes and age groups. All in all, the best book of this kind I've ever bought!
Great all-encompassing collection of Broadway songs!! August 6, 2010

I'm a voice and choral teacher and I have been looking for just one collection of Broadway music that includes "staple" Broadway songs. This book has all my favorites and the kids love to sing them: Joseph, Evita, Wicked, JC Superstar, Phantom, etc. A fantastic collection in one book - this book is a necessity in any music library.
 BEST COLLECTION OF BROADWAY SONGS January 17, 2001
19 out of 19 found this review helpful
THIS BOOK IS THE GREATEST COLLECTION OF BROADWAY CLASSICS I HAVE EVER PURCHASED. IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO SEE THE LIST OF SONGS, GO TO ... AND SEARCH FOR THE TITLE. THE BINDING IS A SPIRAL BINDING WHICH HAS THE TENDANCY TO FALL APART AFTER USE (I SPEAK FROM EXPERIENCE). IT HAS MANY OF THE POPULAR THEMES FROM CLASSIC BROADWAY SHOWS AND THERE ARE GOOD ARRANGEMENTS OF MOST OF THESE SONGS. I WOULD SAY IT IS AN SLIGHTLY ADVANCED PIANO LEVEL. I USE THE BOOK FOR THEATRE ORGAN AND THERE'S PLENTY OF SPOTS FOR IMPROVISING AND REARRANGING. I DON'T KNOW OF A BETTER BOOK OF BROADWAY CLASSICS IN PUBLICATION, SO I GIVE IT A 4 OUT OF 5 (BECAUSE OF THE BINDING PROBLEM I HAD)
