good,
By dame ethel (Australia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Petrushka (Dover Miniature Music Scores) (Paperback)
I'm quite happy with this score which was given to me as a Christmas present(!).
Despite the small print size, it is completely legible apart from a couple of places where the staff lines are a bit faint - but still discernible. The printing is better than some other Dover reblications I have encountered (and some Eulenburgs also). NB: This score was first published in Moscow in 1912, by Editions Russe de Musique. Hence it is the 1911 version not the 1947 one.

original score,
This review is from: Petrushka (Dover Miniature Music Scores) (Paperback)
I got this score because the orchestra I belong to was going to play this piece and thought it'd give me a better understanding of it. This score has a clear description of each tableau and detailed stage directions whenever the mood or musical theme changes, and has been a great help for me to understand what's happening in this ballet. However, this is an original score and while very helpful as a whole, since my orchestra was playing the revised edidtion, there were many differences between them in instrumentation, sometimes in a number of measures and even time signatures, and sometimes it was very confusing. Although I was glad that I had this score while practicing this piece, I did wish if I'd gotten the revised version. Beware of the type of edition you want to read!
