Lady Macbeth of Mzensk (Katerina Ismailov): Opera Vocal Score in Russian and English Hardcover – January 1, 2004

This is a reprint of the vocal score issued in 1935 by Universal Edition and MUSGIS Moskvá. Already there's censorship of both the music and the text present (not as severe as with the 1962 "Katjerína Izmáylova" version, Op.29/114 - but still purged enough - the irony is that it still wasn't tamed enough for Stáljin's tastes!). While good as a curiosity, save your money and first buy the vocal score of the 1932 version from Hans Sikorski (especially if you can accept not having an English text - they have it in Russian and German - either way, it's still in print to the best of my knowledge) - OR wait until they publish the English text that has already been prepared for Boosey & Hawkes.
