My score arrived in great condition and I used it to prepare for a performance in the chorus of the St. Louis Symphony Orchestra. A score like this is a wonderful aid to following the recordings of the best singers and conductors. Seeing the notation as you listen actually helps you hear what goes into an interpretation.

Purchased used and apparently the book has not changed since it was first published. Although this copy was yellowed with age and had some very minor remarks here and there in pencil it was well worth the discounted price I paid.

Some of the letters in the score are a bit hard to read, do to copying I guess, but other than that, it is great.

ISBN: 0-7935-5187-0... This is for the "G. Schirmer Opera Score Editions" version of Verdi's Classic Aida. This is the version most often used by opera companies when they are staging this epic. If you are a chorus member, principal singer, accompianist, or just an opera fan who wants to read along then this is the book for you.This ISBN is the paper-back binding version. There is a spiral-bound version of the exact same book, but that I'm unsure of how to get.Current Retail is $34.95.

Exactly as expected
