I found it very helpful to have the score with the piano reduction, so I can track what the other part, the orchestra and the soloists are doing. One worries about coming in wrong, and losing count of dozens of measures. Great book, great price! Thank you!!!!
Nice, clear, and large

This score is what you'd expect from a German publisher (Schott -- Hal Leonard is only the distributor) -- very clearly and legibly printed on excellent paper -- with the small print in the old men's score in comparison I was hopelessly lost. Having all parts (including solos) together also helps a lot. But you lose compactness - you'll have to hold a pretty heavy book in hand, and do a lot of page flipping, so it's not for everyone.
Beats heck out of the part score for chorus

This book has the full vocal score, well-printed, well laid-out. If you're doing Carmina, you want this score! Clear type, adequate size, good binding, and you can see what the other parts are doing, which really helps most choral singers. Expensive, but worth it. Particularly if you're going to do Carmina maybe 5-10 times in your career.

This was exactly what I was looking for so that I can have my own copy to use for our performance. Thank you.
