Dover has done it again with this excellent addition to their published scores. The Verdi Requiem is one of the greatest choral works ever written and all the details and nuances of the piece can be clearly followed here. The printing is clear and easy-to-read and the book is tightly bound. A must for collectors of scores, musicians, and lovers of the Requiem.
Great

This is the best Full Score version you can get. I had to use it for my Conducting class in college and it was big yet not too big, but perfect for score markings. Easy to read, no questions asked.
Verdi's greatest work
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
This score of Verdi's greatest work is basically the full score and nothing else. The score begins with the instrumentation, a translation of the German terms, and then the music. The notes are easily visible and the score is arranged perfectly. If you're looking for some serious in depth commentary and analysis of the Requiem you might want to turn elsewhere. But for theory students, interested musicians, or just casual listeners who want to see how Verdi did it, this is the copy for you. An excellent buy especially at this incredible price.
Excellent score.

First of all, chances are you've heard Verdi's requiem before ordering this *pocket* score. I emphasize pocket because it doesn't seem to mention it clearly on the page. Well, okay, it's not that small, but just don't expect a full size score to show up at your house. The score itself is VERY well notated and arranged. There's some extra room in the margins for notes, etc. At the beginning of the score, it gives you the full text of the requiem, so you don't have to pick it out from the music. It also gives and notates what's needed in an orchestra in order to play it. Although I would have liked some commentary on the requiem itself, for this EXCELLENT price I'm not complaining.As for the requiem itself, it is BY FAR my favorite. It is surely never to be played at a funeral, but it's a heck of a ride. From the grand, raging Dies Irae to the gorgeous Lacrymosa, to the Libera Me rondo in the last movement, this requiem is great. The score is great to examine and read along with the music because you can see where the composer made his own judgement and added things in, and what was original.If you like the requiem, you'll love it when you're reading the score along with it.
