Publisher's Synopsis
This study score has been off-printed from OUP's conductor's score (available on hire), edited by David Lloyd Jones. Based on Mussorgsky's [Musorgsky's] original autograph from 1867 rather than the famous arrangement by Rimsky-Korsakov, it combines the scholarship of the conductor's edition with the practical benefits of a study score format. This edition takes account of practical performing considerations, where necessary, and includes an introduction by the editor. Orchestral material is available on hire/rental.
