My Fair Lady is Lerner & Loewe's most successful musical, based on the George Bernard Shaw play Pygmalion. Henry Higgins, a professor of phonetics, boasts to his friend, Colonel Pickering, that he can train any woman to speak properly. He chooses Eliza Doolittle, a poor girl with a strong Cockney accent, whom he encounters selling flowers in Covent Garden. This score is arranged for piano and voice.
