Rating: Summary: A great series Review: It's best to purchase all 3 of each anthology - I find Vol. 2 to be the best selection, but since each song is in the original key, it's a far cry from the pablum of typical "vocal selections" available. The only drawback - all the good audition pieces are showing up in these, and now everything's getting overused! :P

Rating: Summary: Most Comprehensive Anthology I've Seen Review: 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
Rating: Summary: Almost perfect Review: 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.

Rating: Summary: A Moderately Good Selection... Review: This is Volume 5 from the Musical Theatre Anthology collection of Broadway duets. It only contains 21 songs, which isn't a lot for a book of this kind. (This is one of the reasons I gave it 3 stars.) Some of the songs are somewhat overdone, but good songs nontheless. Songs are: Bess, You Is My Woman (Porgy and Bess) I Have Dreamed (The King and I) I Loves You Porgy (Porgy and Bess) It Never Was You (Knickerbocker Holiday) Make Believe (Show Boat) A Man and a Woman (110 in the Shade) My Heart Is So Full of You (The Most Happy Fella) People Will Say We're in Love (Oklahoma!) Salzburg (Bells Are Ringing) Strange Music (Kismet) The Touch of Your Hand (The Cat and the Fiddle) Too Many Mornings (Follies) We Kiss in a Shadow (The King and I) We'll Go Away Together (Street Scene) What You Want Wid Bess (Porgy and Bess) When the Children Are Asleep (Carousel) Will You Remember Me (Knickerbocker Holiday) With So Little to Be Sure Of (Anyone Can Whistle) Wunderbar (Kiss Me, Kate) You Are Love (Show Boat) and You're Nearer (Babes in Arms). All of the songs are male/ female.
