Suite No. 2, Op. 48: Study Score Edward Macdowell

First performed in New York City on January 23, 1896 by the Boston Symphony Orchestra, MacDowell's Suite No. 2 or 'Indian' suite so impressed the faculty members of Columbia University that the composer was offered the school's first music professorship. A superb example of MacDowell's mature romantic style, the music is all original despite the descriptive subtitle and programmatic movement titles added after the work's completion. The easy-to-read, digitally enhanced study score offered here is an unabridged reissue of the score first issued in 1897 by MacDowell's German publisher, Breitkopf und Härtel of Leipzig.
