A Slightly Different Version Than Shown

I recently purchased a "collector's" version of this music. The version that I purchased is very nice and was published in 2001 with the binding which allows the book to be opened fully while on the piano. The supplier did everything correctly and I am quite pleased with the product and the service.

The Version to get is 0634088343

There are multiple books of the Sound of Music. The version to get is 0634088343, Sound of Music Piano Play-Along, which has the words, good transcriptions and a CD play-along.

Sound of Music - full score

This is the stage version of the Sound of Music - not the film version - so songs are slightly different in that they are in a different order and also characters have songs in the stage play who don't in the film. I'm in an am dram group and are staging this in October 2008. I wanted the full score so I had something to keep afterwards and this is perfect. It was also much more reasonably priced than I thought it would be and also compared to others who had bought it previously. It is very hard to get hold of in UK, and most people try to get it from USA. Highly recommended.

Wonderful vocal selections

As someone who is not involved in performing in musical theater, but has a great appreciation for it, this book was wonderful! It has all the big hits from the show and is a wonderful book with great arrangements of the songs! I HIGHLY recommend this wonderful book!

Complete vocal score to the theatrical version

This is the complete vocal score to Rodgers and Hammerstein's "Sound of Music." It contains all the vocal lines and underscoring from the theatrical-not the movie-version of the show. It's not ALL that different, but there are a few songs that were cut from the movie which are included here. Conversely, there are a few songs from the movie version which were not in the original stage version that are not included here. Other minor discrepancies between the two productions include the ordering of the songs "Climb Every Mountain," "Do-Re-Mi," and "My Favorite Things." That being said, the actual score is the typical piano-reduction score as used by most musical productions. A complete list of characters is provided, though there is no discussion of their vocal ranges. A breakdown of the original orchestrations by Robert Russell Bennett is also included, as is a synopsis of scenes and a complete index of musical numbers. Instrumental cues are included throughout the score.
