Founded in 1930, Boosey & Hawkes is the largest specialist classical music publishing company in the world.
The publishing story of Boosey & Hawkes begins in 1930 with the merger of two rival music companies. Rather than wage a price war, Leslie Boosey and Ralph Hawkes joined forces and expanded their business from its London base to forge an international enterprise.
Its catalog includes essential composers such as Igor Stravinsky, Béla Bartók, Aaron Copland, Benjamin Britten, Serge Prokofieff, Richard Strauss and Sergei Rachmaninoff, along with popular contemporary composers such as John Adams, Steve Reich and Sir Karl Jenkins.
The extensive catalog of printed music for the professional, student and leisure markets ranges from instrumental and choral to market-leading tutor books and creative teaching materials for schools and colleges.
(Vocal Selections). Music from Wonderful Town has been out of print for more than 40 years, so we are very proud to present this new edition of the brilliant musical comedy currently running in an acclaimed Broadway revival!

After many hardships of adjustment, they find New York to be a "Wonderful Town." The original run of the show opened in 1953 and starred Rosalind Russell, and the Broadway revival, which opened on November 23, 2003, stars Donna Murphy.
