Reviews
While this collection doesn't have every song that I would want to own it does include music from every show (That has lyrics) and as far as I can tell this is the best sheet music collection for Sondheim so far. They are organized by Title of show. I'd prefer that they were ordered by Chronological Order of Shows written The Songs in the collectionAnyone Can Whistle1) Anyone Can Whistle2) Everybody Says Don't3) With So Little to Be Sure ofAssassins4) The Ballad of Booth5) The Ballad of CzolgoszCompany6) The Little Things You Do Together7) Sorry-Grateful8) Another Hundred People9) The Ladies Who Lunch10)Being AliveDick Tracy11) Sooner or Later12) What Can you Lose?Evening Primrose13) I Remember14) Take Me to the WorldFollies15) Broadway Baby16) Buddy's Eyes17) I'm Still Here18) Too Many Mornings19) Buddy's Blues20) Losing My MindThe Frogs21) Fear No MoreForum...22) Comedy Tonight23) Lovely24) Everybody Ought to Have a MaidInto the Woods25) Agony26) No More27) No One is Alone28) Children Will ListenA Little Night Music29) You Must Meet My Wife30) Every Day a Little Death31) Send in the Clowns32) The Miller's SonMerrily We Roll Along33) Like It Was34) Old Friends35) Not a Day Goes By36) Good Thing GoingPacific Overtures37) Someone in a Tree38) Pretty LadyPassion39) Happiness40) I Wish I Could Forget You41) Loving YouRoad Show42) Talent43) The Best Thing That Ever Has HappenedSaturday Night44) So Many People45) What More Do I Need?Sunday in the Park with George46) Sunday in the Park with George47) Finishing the Hat48) Sunday49) Move OnSweeney Todd50) Johanna51) Pretty Women52) Not While I'm Around
