Dover Publications has an outstanding catalogue of paperbound full-size and
condensed "study" orchestral scores. I have Tchaikovsky's 4, 5, & 6
Symphonies, which lists complete Brahms Symphonies, Late Mozart Symphonies,
and 4 Schubert Symphonies as "also available." My Ravel's Daphnis and Chloe
Ballet (full ballet score, not Suites) lists as "also available" the
following: Stravinsky, The Firebird; Debussy, 3 "Great Orchestral Works";
Prokofiev, 4 "Orchestral Works"; Ravel, "Piano Masterpieces."

Scores are available (cheap!) by mail. Write for catalogue to:

Dover Publications, Inc.
31 East 2nd Street
Mineola, NY 11501

Hope this address still "works."
