Review (PDF) Great Romantic Cello Concertos In Full Score (Dover Music Scores)
Lovers of the rich burnished tones of the cello will appreciate the keynote of this volume: complete scores of three great romantic cello concertos brought together in one convenient source. Spanning the last half of the nineteenth century, the compositions reveal extraordinary lyricism, imagination, and individual interpretation of the concerto form.The works in this volume are Robert Schumann: Cello Concerto in A Minor, Op. 129; Camille Saint-Saëns: Cello Concerto No. 1, Op. 33; and Antonín Dvořák: Cello Concerto in B Minor, Op. 104.Generations of cellists and music lovers have savored these works for their unique qualities: the Schumann concerto for its ravishing interweaving of cello and orchestra; that of Saint-Saëns for solid musical craftsmanship; the Dvořák work for enchanting melodies and exceptionally rich invention. Now musicians can enjoy the felicities of each work, complete and unabridged, in this sturdy, attractive Dover volume.Reprinted directly from authoritative editions, this volume offers not only great music but also the quality features that musicians have come to expect from Dover: clear reproduction of musical notation; ample space for analysis, notes, fingerings, etc.; glossaries of musical terms; and more. For playing or study, this inexpensive edition is a must for every serious cellist.

Three great cello concertos are included in this edition, with perhaps the Dvorak concerto being the best ever written for the instrument.Dover's edition is put together well. Clear printing, score lays flat, and once again, how can you beat the price? Recommended for anyone that loves these concertos and wants to learn more about them.
Good quality printing. The binding doesn't lay very flat and the paper is thin, but that's not much of an issue for me. Very useful for studying the scores.
Wonderful script, a lot to enjoy and learn from, yet with one flaw: There are no separate sheets for the cello.When I purchased this notebook, I didn't know that.
