Notable missing songs are Who's Crazy/My Psychopharmacologist And I, It's Gonna Be Good, Make Up Your Mind/Catch Me I'm Falling, Wish I Were Here, Song of Forgetting, and Better than Before.

Arrangements are based on the orchestra score, with minor adjustments in the piano part. Vocal parts are NOT doubled in the piano and the accompaniment follows the original piano part pretty closely. Vocal parts are written out for each character and some dialog is included.

Over all, this is a great Vocal Selections book. Too bad about the missing songs, though.

This is a wonderful book. The songs are in their original key and sound exactly like they do from the show! The music is beautiful and I use mine SO frequently!

Best Musical Ever! I LOVED the show on Broadway & this recording just brings the beauty home - deservedly won the Pulitzer this year.

Recently purchased this book, and love it dearly. It has most of the songs, almost all, and I think the idea was to include songs that could be taken out of context and therefore useful to a singer... My Psychopharmacologist and I wouldn't really be useful unless one was specifically doing that scene from the show. Also, the book isn't the indigo color it appears to be in the above picture, it's actually the same color as the poster, so don't worry. The songs are in no apparent order, but very complete. An excellent purchase -- there are so many songs, you definitely get your money's worth!
