In the Heights-Piano/Vocal Selections (Songbook) [Paperback] Review

A surprising number of songs are included here. The piano/vocal arrangements are fantastic, and very little is cut from the original show - even choral parts are kept the same, mostly. The only major exception is a slightly abridged version of the title song (not surprising though, given its length and dialogue segments). Many times the vocal selections score of a musical can be over-simplified or watered down, but it's clear that a lot of time and effort was spent putting together these arrangements to make them as authentic and true to the show as possible. Miranda's score is one of the best I have ever heard, and these arrangements have only increased my appreciation for it. A must-have for any ITH fan!
