5.0 out of 5 stars Chopin's Polonaises, March 13, 2000

By	REBECCA OLNESS (Kent, Washington) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Chopin Polonaises: Urtext Edition (Music Scores) (Paperback)

This is a beautiful edition for the price. Notes are easy to read and its an urtext version, too. A rare find for less than half the price of similar editions.

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome Edition - Lays flat and easy to read, March 2, 2009

By	Yives "I'm alive" (Littleton, CO) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Polonaises for the Piano (Complete) (Plastic Comb)

This edition is awesome. It has a plastic spiral that lets the book open and lay flat, and in comparison to books without it this feature is definitely better.

The measures are numbered and they are spaced evenly throughout the pages. There is no crowding of notes and footnotes are kept at the bottom. The font and note color is big and black too.

Overall this takes the cake because Chopin's Polonaises are virtuosic works, so the edition must be as clear to understand as possible.

I only wish that Alfred publishing would make more complete editions like this of other artists such as Beethoven and Debussy. In any case this edition is superior to the Schirmer editons.
