Vocal Selections from Falsettos Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This book is the libretto for the musical "Falsettos" which is sung entirely, so unless you have the music, the book is incomplete.But for "Falsettos" lovers this is a must have.The music is a bit confusing with a lot of subtext.The book allows you to analyze each character to find the deeper meaning (and believe me, there is a lot of underlined meaning).The best part of the book is that it includes one version of "In Trousers" (which is vertually unavailable in a sound recording)."In Trousers" was the first of the three one-acts written and tells of Marvin's struggle with his sexuality when he was in high school.There are three versions of "In Trousers": the original, the revision, and a combination of both.This version is the combination.Perhaps "In Trousers" is the most insightful of all three shows, although it is the hardest to understand.If you like to analyze scripts, this one is a welcomed challenge.All three deal with the idea of homosexuality and family life.It is a funny, heart warming, heart wrenching story as you follow Marvin's struggle to accept his homosexuality and still maintain a relationship with his young son and (ex)wife.It has good family values and some beautiful ballads.One of my all time favorite musicals.A definite for any musical library.

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)While I have all four of these books in Paperback and therefore have had no need to buy this book I have looked through this book and I think buying this one is a MUCH better idea than buying them seperately.This book includes pictures, Drawings by Al Hirschfield, Cut-Lyrics and more.Allfour of the shows are purely genius and provide you with laughter whileprovoking thoughts.This is a must for all Sondheim fans and musical fansand anyone interested in 4 great shows: A Funny Thing Happened on the Wayto the Forum, Sunday in the Park With George,Sweeny Todd, and A LittleNight Music.
