5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent!, July 8, 2003

By	Tomasi Maurizio (Bergamo, Italy) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Very interesting edition. Noteheads are large and well readable. The preface is very interesting, and lists some passages found in Brahms' autographs that were crossed out and rewritten (e.g. the beginning of the Clarinet Quintet). Hans Gal (the editor) made a great work in preparing this edition!

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Value, December 31, 2002

By	Martin Shultz (Houston, TX United States) - See all my reviews

This fat Dover edition is an excellent deal if you're playing any one of these pieces. I think they reprinted the Breitkopf and Hartel edition, so every marking should be legitimate. Definitely a key component of the chamber music score library. And like most Dover scores, it stays open easily if you set it down- it's bound in such a way that it won't close by itself all the time.
