5.0 out of 5 stars Most Comprehensive Anthology I've Seen, August 24, 1998

By A Customer

This book is very well organized, complete with a table of contents organized by musical, and summaries of each show for reference. The songs are presented in their original scores (no funky keys:). Althought this should be a part of every experienced singer;s library, those singers who have not had a couple years of either private training or music theory should skip it. Among certain circles, this is considered "The Bible" for young singers

4.0 out of 5 stars Almost perfect, September 19, 2001

By	Melissa OBrien Hickle (Reisterstown, MD USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This book presents a great collection of songs for the soprano singer, ranging in the well-known to the semi-obscure, which is helpful for audition pieces. The only flaw is the lack of up-tempo numbers, as many of the songs are ballads and otherwise slow, which is a drawback for those trying to build up their range of styles.
