Product Description

Product Description

Based on the play by Maurine Dallas Watkins 9m, 10f Premiering in 1975 and the hit of the 1997 Broadway season in a production that originated at City Center's Encore! series, Chicago won six Tony Awards including Best Revival and later the Academy Award as Best Picture of the Year. In roaring twenties Chicago, chorine Roxie Hart murders a faithless lover and convinces her hapless husband Amos to take the rap...until he finds out he's been duped and turns on Roxie. Convicted and sent to death row, Roxie and another "Merry Murderess" Velma Kelly, vie for the spotlight and the headlines, ultimately joining forces in search of the "American Dream": fame, fortune and acquittal. This sharp edged satire features a dazzling score that sparked immortal staging by Bob Fosse. "'A pulse racing revival that flies us right into musical heaven." -The New York Times "Wildly entertaining...[with a] dazzling score." -New York Daily News

4.0 out of 5 stars Razzle Dazzle..., 26 May 2003
By 
Mr. James A. Church (Berkshire, England, United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Some great songs here, a great selection and some great arrangements. Eight gorgeous pictures from the Movie, plus a production synopsis with cast lists for both film and show. The music is somewhat complete, with some of the music displaying alternatives, such as "movie version end" and "Stage ending". Cell block Tango is included, with dialogue cues! And even 'I Can't Do it Alone', although parts of the instrumental-dance sections aren't included (i.e. the song is written once through and, not as in the film version, twice through). The movy-cut song ,'Class', is also there, among all of the other favourites.

However, the chord symbols often don't match. E.g., instead of a chord being Bb7, it is written as B7, which is really confusing. And this doesn't just happen a few times - I'd forget the chord symbols if I were you!

A part from this, a well produced folio. Perfect for singers and cabaret artists alike.

3.0 out of 5 stars OK as accompaniment..., 18 Jun 2008
By 
This is a very good music book and a does well to replicate the music from the film, however if you are looking for something you just want to play alone with no singer (yourself or another) then this is not ideal: it does not play the melody in most parts of the pieces, as it expects there to be a singer. This being the case, I do not use the book much. Just a warning.
