Pages lie flat and will not fall out. The edition is practical for almost any use, whether as a study guide, a reference or an indispensable companion for your greater musical enjoyment. Poems and all other texts, including musical indications, in German and new English translation by Stanley Appelbaum. We have made every effort to make this the best book possible. Pages are sewn in signatures, in the method traditionally used for the best books, and will not drop out, as often happens with paperbacks held together with glue.
Books open flat for easy reference.
The binding will not crack or split. This is a permanent book.
