After seeing the musical, I bought this for my husband who plays the piano. He loves it and it sounds beautiful!

Read Product Description Carefully

The product description describes both this product and another product (actually the one I was looking for), instead of limiting itself to coverage of the product on whose page it appears, which is just stupid. This item is the watered down arrangement with the melody artificially inserted into the accompaniment. The listing title is vague, so a more thorough study of the product description is required to understand exactly what you are purchasing.
Also, I realize that this is more of a review of the listing quality than the product quality. I will also say that I have scanned the music and have found it to be as disappointing as I would usually expect this type of arrangement to be. If, however, you do not sing, and want to hear the melody while you are playing the piano part, then this is for you.

Piano/Vocal Arrangement -- melody in the piano part!

I just wanted to leave a quick note saying that "Piano/Vocal Selections" means that the melody is worked into the right hand of the piano part, so you aren't reading what the pit pianist has. It still works for most people's purposes, but if you want a genuine copy of what the pianist is playing in the recordings, you just want Vocal Selections.

If you look at the cover, the red circle in the upper-right says just this, but I don't know if it is anywhere else in the description. The Vocal Selections book does not have this red bubble.

GREAT SCORE!

This show is brilliantly written. The music is challenging to play, but well worth the effort. The songs are so satisfying to sing! I use some of the songs to audition with, and they are show stoppers. I reccommend this book if you are a singer looking to add some fantastic songs to your repertoire.

Love the music

I love Wicked and really think the whole show story and music is genius. I use this book to teach out of. Just know that you really need to play well to play these songs. There are lots of key changes, sharps and flats. I warm my students up first with:Voice Lessons To Go's -Vocalize!

Nominated for a whopping 10 Tony Awards in 2005, Wicked is an undeniable Broadway smash! A prequel to the all-American classic The Wizard of Oz, this new musical is a character study of Elphaba and Glinda, school roommates who grow up to become the Wicked Witch and the Good Witch, respectively. We are very proud to offer several songbooks featuring this delightful music, including a Vocal Selections book which contains the vocal line with piano accompaniment (00313268), and a Piano/Vocal Selections book, in standard piano/vocal format with the melody in the piano part (00313267). Songbooks feature a special section of color photos from the production, a note from composer/lyricist Stephen Schwartz, and these fantastic tunes: As Long as You're Mine * Dancing Through Life * Defying Gravity * For Good * I Couldn't Be Happier * I'm Not That Girl * No Good Deed * No One Mourns the Wicked * One Short Day * Popular * What Is This Feeling? * The Wizard and I * Wonderful.
