Things to consider
Start with the Edition Peters series number or opus if you know the specific work you need; the catalog is organized by composer and genre. For choir directors, choral octavos are formatted for rehearsal and performance, while conductor scores and vocal scores serve different needs: use a vocal score to preview repertoire or coach singers, and a conductor score to lead from the podium. Digital downloads let you print on demand; physical shipments suit those who prefer bound books and parts.
