Max Harrison Rachmaninoff?

[MomsMobley]

Any organum types have this and think it worth the bread?

Max is usually excellent but I'm wary of Continuum books sight unseen, especially since the pb price is asinine given the likely quality; if I go in, it'd be cloth.

A shame this wasn't on one of the better academic presses we can usually trust; it's not like distribution would have been that much worse.

EDIT: that is correct, thank you J.A.W.

I read this and enjoyed it. It's very thorough and told me a lot I didn't know about Rachmaninoff. I agree that the price is ridiculous.
