Hi!I got this book from .com a few weeks ago and it is great.It includes songs from classic Broadway shows -familiar shows and others not very known- and more recent plays, such as Spamalot, Thoroughly Modern Millie, Wicked and Urinetown.The print format is very spacey and the songs are quite accurate. Occasionally I've found little differences between the recorded tracks I own and whats written in the book, but I'm talking about one-two notes top.The book includes and introduction clearing a lot of things, which is worth reading, and an appendix about all the shows included with usefull information (authors, directors, number of performances, premiere dates, as well as a context paragraph with the show's story line, so you can know what the songs included are about).I love this book. And I will keep on buying this series.Two things I want to clear that were a bit confusing for me when I bought it:1. This book is just the sheet music. It does not include any CD or audio tape.2. The list of songs is the one mentioned in the first reviews listed. I know there's a review for another book with the same song list, but those are the songs for this book. (This was hughely confusing for me when I first bought this).Just in case, I'm re-copying the list of the song included in this volume (Singer's Musical Theater Anthology, Volume 4, Mezzo-Soprano/belter, Blue Cover), so no one else gets confused.
