Hat Box: The Collected Lyrics of Stephen Sondheim: A Box Set [Sondheim, Stephen] on desertcart.com. *FREE* shipping on qualifying offers. Hat Box: The Collected Lyrics of Stephen Sondheim: A Box Set

Review: Invaluable insight and collection - Whether you are a Sondheim completist, or simply curious about the writing process, history and the man's own personal thoughts about his work, this box set is provides an invaluable inside peek to the whole breadth of his written works. Songs that were excised (and in some cases reinserted) from each of his major projects are here presented in their entirety, often with notes relating to their original context and reasons for deletion. The black & white reproductions of production photos and Sondheim's own written notes wonderfully accent the main text. It should be noted that Sondheim focuses mainly on the lyrics in this collection, for a deeper look into the process behind music and lyrics Mark Eden Horowitz's "Sondheim on Music: Minor Details and Major Decisions" (ISBN: 978-0810874367) is a better volume.
Review: Inspiring Insights and documentation for any writer - What a great and comprehensive journey into the mind of the greatest living writer for the musical stage. So much more than a thorough documentation of Sondheim’s lyrics it’s like being a fly on the wall hearing musical theater history being created. If not for yourself than buy this for your favorite theater geek. They will love you forever.
