Assassins: Vocal Score Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is, in my opinion, Sondheim's greatest musical to date. The score, although shorter than most of his, contains some of his wittiest lyrics: 'Or we'd have been left / Bereft / Of F.D.R.!', and some of the greatesttunes ('The Gun Song' is a personal favourite). Sondheim cleverly uses themarches of John Philip Sousa to evoke the ironic feeling of patriotism in atale about presidential assassins. He also pastiches the music of AaronCopland in many numbers. The combination of these styles and composersprovides a truly American atmosphere, which, when heard out of context makewonderful songs, but in context of the show carry a deeper underscore ofmenace. Whether you're intending to produce the show or you just want toown a piece of Sondheim history, this score is a must!
