For piano sheets, I go to musicnotes.com, they're usually about $5-6 per song. La La Land is dominating their top download chart right now:

Or if you want to wait for the whole book, it appears to be available for pre-order on Amazon (will be released Jan. 26th)

My "Masterpieces of Western Music" course at university used First Nights. I thought that it was pretty interesting, though only covers Monteverdi's L'Orfeo, Handel's Messiah, Beethoven's Ninth Symphony, Berlioz's Symphonie fantastique, and Stravinsky's Le sacre du printemps. So, it gives more depth that breadth, but it is quite interesting and gives you some ideas of general movements that each composer exemplifies.
I am the opposite of a vampire. Lots of great stuff happens at night but I can't seem to stay awake. Perhaps its all the stuff I do during the day. I am working, taking voice lessons, rehearsing for a show, performing a show, cleaning my apartment. I missed the war that went on because I was fighting in a war in Narnia. (No really, I am Narnia the musical and I fight in the two big fight scenes.) So [this] (http://www.amazon.com/Honk-Vocal-Selections-Chords-Edition/dp/0571532101/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_S_nC?ie=UTF8&colid=1L8ON2MX2QPTV&coliid=I2ABPEQX01DTNU) would help me prepare for the next big show I am auditioning for. I am hoping to get a big part. This show isn't about a pickle, but an ugly duckling. Thanks for the contest!
Your post has been removed because it is for something that is easily purchased. We do not seek to actively take money out the hands of composers here, so whenever something can be purchased it should be.
At that point you are welcome to share it, but we don't think it is fair to request something that someone else had to pay for. Almost everything shared here is for scores/parts/librettos that are not available for purchase anywhere.
This community has many subscribers that are very closely tied to shows on Broadway and the West End, and we rely on them to help regulate formatting and regulation of the sub.

As you can see the Vocal Selections for Waitress are available, also I find it interesting that I posted this request last week and it was approved but when I was trying to repost the request it was removed.
