Book Description

Vocal Score January 1, 1981
A group of resourceful kids start "solution-seekers.com," a website where "cybervisitors" can get answers to questions that trouble them. But when one questioner asks the true meaning of Christmas, the kids seek to unravel the mystery by journeying back through the prophecies of the Old Testament. What they find is a series of "S" words that reveal a "spectacular story!" With creative characters, humorous dialogue and great music, The "S" Files is a children's Christmas musical your kids will love performing.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Great Sondheim Score!, December 2, 2007
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum (Vocal Score) (Paperback)
The first commercially successful show for Stephen Sondheim, "A Funny
Thing Happened On The Way To The Forum" is a delightful score that
exhibited creativity and imagination and offered everyone a look at
the marvelous work that was to come.

3.0 out of 5 stars Wish it had the chords, November 21, 2007
This review is from: A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum (Vocal Score) (Paperback)
When I bought this item I assumed it had the chords written with the piano/vocal score as many others do. My son plays the piano but he reads the chords when he plays. So, I ended up returning it. So, if you don't need the chords I suppose it will be fine for you!

4.0 out of 5 stars I thought it was great but not perfect, March 23, 2000
This review is from: A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum (Vocal Score) (Paperback)
I thought the music was very wonderful and original and the way the music was displayed was very good indeed. The score not only is great in itself, it was also a great accompanyment to the liberetto book witch you can also get on amazon.com. for any lovers of this play or anyone who likes broadway at all, I would definatly recomend this book.
