Reviews
I love Company very much! My favorite Sondheim Musical and Musical in general! I has a wonderful score! The only song it does not have is "Tick Tock." Originally I was gonna only get the vocal score but I learned this version included cut songs from the show including "The Wedding is Off." which I've only heard in an audio of Sondheim singing it for producers. And a bit from Sondheim on Sondheim. The original piano/vocal arrangement is beautiful! I might get the vocal score soon. I'm still happy with this version. It does have all the songs in original keys from the 1970 version! This version also includes "Marry me a little" the key is in B major just so you know. I was hoping it was the key that was used in the 2006 John Doyle Production (the one with Raul Esparza). This version is from the 1995 Revival with Boyd Gaines. And it includes Happily ever After and Multitudes of Amys which are my favorite cut songs! I actually already had both songs but still its good to have this book. I definitely recommend this version so much. Even after comparing with the 25th anniversary vocal selection, I love this one so much! This is still a wonderful book for not just Sondheim fans but also musical nerds like me!
