Ernani Vocal Score
Ernani vocal score, by Giuseppe Verdi. Reprinted from Ricordi edition. Today a rarely heard opera, Ernani has the peculiar distinction of being the first opera to be recorded complete. The recording took place in 1904, sixty years after the premiere. Heavy, smooth paper and excellent print contrast distinguish Polonius editions. Musicians will delight in the sturdy spiral binding, which allows the score to lie flat when opened to any page.
