Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great score!
Review: I had a presentation to do for my Music History class. In college everything needs to be exceptional. I looked at many scores and found this one. It is beautifully writen. Deffinately a must have, for Music teachers, and Mussorgsky lovers alike.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Full Score for Mussorgski's A Night on Bald Mountain
Review: No arrangements, no alterations, no changes whatsoever to this beautiful work. It is left exactly as Mussorgski wrote it. For the musician who wants inspiration or anyone who loves beautiful music.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Facts About This Score
Review: To correct the previous reviwer's comment about this work being "just the way Mussorgsky wrote it", this reviwer would like to point out that the Dover score is a reprint of Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov's arrangement and orchestration. While a brilliant and deservedly popular work in its own right, Rimsky's arrangement was prepared about 5 years after the composer's death and bears only the most superficial resemblance to Mussorgsky's 1867 score (full title: St. John's Night on the Bare Mountain). The Dover reprint is very clean with a sturdy binding at a very reasonable price - certainly worth the 4 stars from this reviewer.
