Les Misérables

This songbook contains 16 songs selections from the movie adaptation of the musical, Les Misérables by Boublil and Schönberg: Many favourites are here, some in slightly different forms, two with new sections added for the movie, including a Gavroche section in 'Look Down, ' back from the 1980 original French show, and one brand new song, 'Suddenly, ' written especially for Jean Valjean/Hugh Jackman, for the scene after he discovers the strength of his new fatherly feeling for little Cosette, which aims to capture Victor Hugo's beautiful statements about how two unhappy souls can make one happy human being. Presented in Piano/Vocal format, the songbook also features 16 pages of colour artwork from the film.
