Product Description
Well known for its grand opening movement and glorious choral finale, Mahler’s Second Symphony is scored for solo soprano, solo mezzo-soprano, chorus and orchestra. Reprinted from the authoritative Josef Weinberger edition, this inexpensive high-quality volume features the full score in a conveniently sized edition for study at home, in the classroom or concert hall.

 Very good definitive edition, 2008-01-08
As the others have said, the score is small enough to be convenient and large enough to read for the most part, although there are two or three pages where some staves are faded slightly. I just wish that there was a glossary of some sort or a translation of all of Mahler's orchestral markings.
A Great Bargain, 2005-04-22
Dover's entire line of miniature scores is great for anyone who wishes to have a deeper knowledge of great orchestral works without paying $20 or more the full-sized version. I own the 8 of Mahler's 9 symphonies that Dover offers in this series (the 7th Symphony is currently unavailable) and have been very pleased with them. The print is large enough to be easy to read without having to deal with a cumbersome full-sized score.
Wonderful edition of a legendary piece!, 2000-09-23
Gustav Mahler is one of the last truely great symphony writers. His orchestrations are vast and his use of tone shows his true mastery of composition. This edition is the perfect book for any music lover, especially Mahler fans. It is small enough to slip easily into a purse or jacket pocket for use in the concert hall or in a bookbag or backpack for school. It is ideal for the professional conductor and compsoer as well as the music fan who wishes to own a written copy of the greatest symphony ever written. Also, its wide margins are perfect for note taking or analysis. This is truely the perfect score for the music lover. I own about 5 and plan on adding to my collection very shortly. Other great Dover items include the miniature scores for Beethoven's 5th and 9th symphonies, which are among the standard literature for every major orchestra worldwide, and the miniature score of Mozart's powerful Requiem Mass in D minor.
