Solid edition, in conformity to the NMA with a light editorial hand. Suggested fingerings sometimes questionable (whose aren't?), layout a big awkward on several pages especially the Allegro assai. Why always put the Beethoven's cadenzas for this Mozart concerto on the very last pages? As to Sheet Music Plus service, in one word -- slow. Seems to operate on the model of keeping minimum stock on hand. Packaging, inadequate for UPS shipping purposes. Responsiveness to complaint, very good, but resolution of replacement copy -- extremely slow.
