Summary: Brava~
Review: As a young lyric soprano, with a father who plays piano very well, I have a wonderful time singing this music! Christine's arias and such are in a beautiful arrangement, and from what my father tells me, the piano's adaptation is quite good as well. Likewise, the colorful pictures make the book fun to flip through countless times!

With this in mind , I highly recommend this book to any singer or pianist...for it is both well arranged, and lovely to look at! ~Brava~

Summary: Go ahead and buy it (if you only want songs from "Phantom")
Review: By all means, buy this book if these are the songs you want.

However, there is an alternative sheet music collection you should consider if you would like to have songs from some of his other shows. That book is called THE ESSENTIAL ANDREW LLOYD WEBBER COLLECTION (ISBN 0634001604). You can check it out right here at Amazon.com.

That book is a little more expensive but it contains MOST of these "Phantom" songs (except "Masquerade," "Angel of Music" and "Prima Donna") in addition to the key selections from:

"Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat"
"Jesus Christ Superstar"
"Evita"
"Starlight Express"
"Cats"
"Aspects of Love"
"Sunset Boulevard"

The book you are looking at now is a great collection of songs from "Phantom." If you want/need to have "Masquerade," "Angel of Music" and/or "Prima Donna" then you'll have to get this book. If you don't want songs from those other shows then this "Phantom" book is right for you.

If you're anything like me, you'll go for the bigger book and get more bang for your buck.

Either way, you're sure to get hours of enjoyment singing along with the cast recording(s) or with piano accompaniment. Having the sheet music is very helpful in terms of learning the song. Also, my ability to sight read is improving.

Happy singing!

Summary: Great!
Review: Desperately wanting some more piano music, I bought this sheet music last night. Oh, I love it! I don't have the c.d. or anything, but have listened to it once at my cousins house, who loves Phantom of the Opera. Now I'm definitely buying the c.d. though. And like some other people have said in reviews, this music is not hard. But it sounds like it is. : P

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great!
Review: I got this book for Christmas and it is a great book. I love it. I play out of it as much as I can. It is very good for sight reading and they are good songs to learn to sing. This book is great! Buy it!

Summary: Musically Wonderful!
Review: I have been playing piano for 9 years & this is one of the best books i own! It is so emotional & even thrilling at times. I just saw the live opera at San Antonio texas & it was awsome! also buy the cd - highlights from the phantom of the opera. I love this music!!!!!!!!!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Hauntingly beautiful
Review: I love POTO! I had been trying to get this music book for ages. It's quite simple, and very suitable for Grade 3 and above. My fav is the theme song of course and 'All I Ask of You' and 'Wishing You Were Somehow Here Again' are beyond anything I've ever played. 'Masquerade' is not exactly my fav and 'The Point of No Return' is quite tricky but all are equally hauntingly beautiful!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Lovely music to play....
Review: I loved this piano book sooooo much! I play it right along with the CD

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Good for intermediate pianists
Review: I made my mother buy me this book. I read the novel, bought the CD, and now have the piano music. It's wonderfully written and very true to the original. The songs are not hard, but some of the keys are. You get used to it.

Rating: 5 stars
