First, here at MU in the hills of north central PA we play drop the needle
starting with pre-classical composers, not before. To drop the needle our
teacher simply picks a CD track and plays it. There are CD track numbers
appear at key places in the music.

Secondly, the Grout/Palisca package is expensive. The following can be
purchased:

A History of Western Music, 5th ed. Grout, edited by Palisca.

The Norton Anthology of Western Music vols. 1 and 2, 3rd ed., edited by
Palisca. (Scores for recorded examples).

The Norton Recorded Anthology of Western Music, 2 vols. of 6 CD's each to
accompany the two items above.

Study and Listening Guide, by Burkholder for all of the above.

Also, gotta love the price of college textbooks. My first semester was
about $500.
