As with all the G. Schirmer paperbacks they are great for students to read along with their favorite recordings, but when they come to having to prepare a role from the opera. The score is difficult to work with. It doesn't stay open on the piano, the pages are thin so when one writes / highlights in it bleeds to the next page, and also because the running English version - it's NOT a translation makes it hard to write in a proper translation. If you're preparing a role buy the Ricordi hard cover copy ;)
I love this opera. I love this opera. I love this opera. That is all.jk I like the printing size, very easy to read, and paperback means I don't feel guilty about highlighting it
Full vocal score (all principal, chorus) with piano reduction. This was exactly what I needed, just perfect for opera rehearsals.
I like the edition basically, however, it is really hard to distinguish between the "t" and "f" in the book.
