5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful Beethoven Score, January 29, 2002
Like the other two books in Dover's Beethoven Symphonies set, the score to the Eighth and Ninth are wonderful. The print is large and very readable. The best part is the low price. This is a must for the starving (music) student, teachers, listeners, and professionals alike. I highly reccommend it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Trustworthy and economical, June 18, 2000
By A Customer
This accessible and comprehensive edition of Beethoven's late symphonies is trusted by professional and student conductors as well as orchestral players interested in seeing the ways in which their parts fit into the whole.

Easy-to-read, clear printing with helpful (never overwhelming) notes on discrepancies within the music, choral text for the Ninth Symphony.

2.0 out of 5 stars Let the BUYER BEWARE!!!, October 28, 2006
By R. J. Gonzalez "gonzostick" (Napa, CA United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Eighth and Ninth Symphonies in Full Orchestral Score (Paperback)
While Dover's many scores represent an amazing value across the musical repertoire, their collection and reprint of the Litolff Edition of the Beethoven Symphonies was a mistake. For the casual buyer they are workable, but not for serious use in performance, as they are riddled with editorial mistakes and problems. Purchaser would be better advised to find a set of the miniature (octavo-sized) Bärenreiter critical scores. They are bound just as nicely and the paper is of excellent quality. I use the full-size Bärenreiter set when I conduct my orchestra.
