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.
