Les Pecheurs de Perles in Full Score

The composer of Carmen (1875), the world's most popular opera, first made his mark with Les Pêcheurs de Perles (The Pearl Fishers), performed in 1863. Set in ancient Ceylon, this tale of friendship, love, and betrayal has been performed more and more often in opera houses around the world in recent years. The famous baritone/tenor duet in the second act is among the most often recorded of all opera highlights, and a copy of the full score is essential for conductors as well as for students of composition and orchestration. Bizet's work is among the Dover Music Phoenix Editions, a new series comprising large-format reprints of full scores of major works previously available only in high-priced, hard-to-find editions. These handsome casebound editions offer affordable alternatives for conductors, scholars, musicians, and libraries. - Back cover.
