This is a great score for Berlioz's Symphonie Fantastique! It has a nice, hard cover - ready for wear and tear. Print is small, but very clear and easy to read. Instrument names are only listed on the first page of each movement making it difficult to follow each instrument and tell which instrument is where in the score. Aside from the instrument name thing, this score has everything you need and is the score to buy for Symphonie Fantastique!
