Hi franklinshepard(inc)-ga!

I haven't seen this published anywhere... sometimes older shows can be tricky.

Maybe you could consider requesting a perusal score from the licence
holder, Musical Theater International.

Hope this helps!

Oooh, there's also a vocal score in the Library of Congress...

Thanks so much! I was hoping I wouldn't have to go through the whole
"requesting a perusal score" thing, but I guess you've got to do what
you've got to do.

Unless...could someone at the Library of Congress just send me a
photocopy of the song? Do you know how that place works?

You might also try the library of a nearby University (if there is one).

If the vocal score has never been published, than most Universities
won't carry it, and the one or two that do (usually, NYU) won't lend
it out.

Hello,
Below there is a link to an auction selling the sheet music of the musical:

If the link doesn't work, try including a letter O at the end, because
I'm afraid the link's address will be cut when I post the comment. So,
the end of the link addres is: PTEO

Hello,
Sorry but only now I noticed the bid ended two days ago, on Jan. 24.
Maybe you could contact stormpay.com and ask them about the sheet.

Thanks for the thought, re:the auction, but the song I'm looking for
is not included in that vocal selection book. It looks like I shan't
be able to find this song, unless I travel to DC anytime soon.
