Book Reviews of Floyd Collins (Vocal Score)
Book Review: Complete, accurate, vocal score
Summary: 5 Stars
This is the complete vocal score to Adam Guettel's "Floyd Collins." It contains all the vocal lines and underscoring from the show. Also present is a breakdown of the 8 orchestra books for the pit. A list of characters in included, but there is no discussion of their vocal ranges (not that it's all that hard to look through the score and find them for yourself).
Mr. Sperling's keyboard reductions of his own orchestrations are incredibly accurate, if highly un-pianistic. This isn't so much his fault, as it is the nature of the beast. Guitar music just doesn't translate to the piano all that well. Chord symbols would have been nice-and they are included in the guitar appendix (a nice addition to the score)-alas, they are not present in the piano reduction.
All in all a great volume.
