Choose a Lower Key! It goes up a tone

Short on time, I’ve elected to download this tune rather than transpose it myself from a Sondheim WBP album for my wife. Imagine my surprise to see the tune goes up a tone on page 5! It’s great to have all the lyrics, but musicnotes should warn that this arrangement goes up a tone midway through. It’ll cost me another 6 bucks to get it in the best keys!!

Key Changes in the Middle of Songs

I read through all the details available on the site as I was certain their was a key change in the song. But nothing mentioned a modulation until I read a review. That is important arrangement information.

Being Alive Review

Great arrangement... easy to read as usual from music notes. The absolute only thing I would like to see on this copy is the chord changes as i am a singer and not a pianist, so it would be easier for me to rehearse with the chord changes.
