Great music,
By A Customer
This review is from: Merrily We Roll Along (Vocal Selections): Piano/Vocal (Paperback)
My only complaint is that the melody is often imposed on the piano part. Sondheim's music for this play is beautiful and driven by his chords. To make it playable with the melody, they had to remove some of the notes. My suggestion: buy it and let the singer sing the melody.

This review is from: Merrily We Roll Along (Vocal Selections): Piano/Vocal (Paperback)
The vocal selections of any Sondheim show tend to be a tease until the full vocal score is published. Sadly, the full score for "Merrily We Roll Along" is no longer in print, (and how I wish I could remember to whom I lent my copy as I would get it back,) but we have to settle for the music that is here and let "Bobby and Jackie and Jack" and "Franklin Shephard Inc" come out of our hands by memory. "Not a Day Goes By" is one of the most brilliant pieces of irony ever written and this book gives you both versions. The finale: "Our Time" which is a remarkable tribute soing and wonderful for any graduation or special occasion, exists on page in this book without giving away it's secret. Nor will I. Ignorance is bliss. Buy the book. Use it as you will and enjoy it.

5.0 out of 5 stars
One of the best plays in years, truly a masterpiece,
By A Customer
This review is from: Merrily We Roll Along (Paperback)
Furth and Sondheim have done it again! This play combines the delightfulness of youth and dreams and the harshness of reality. It runs backwards to keep your spirits high at the end. Also, to show that the path you choose isn't always the one that leaves you with everything you imagined. Sondheim beautifully captures the true emotions present throughout this show. He does not create a false emotion, but brings each piece to an aesthetic that surges with a true felt emotion. Truly, this play will leave you laughing, crying, and breathless.
