Do yourself a favor and check the price at GIA/Chicago and then (use your French) call the publisher, Solesmes Abbey (sable-sur-sarthre, France) and get the price in French Francs SHIPPED to you in USA. Call your bank and get the exchange conversion from francs to dollars (or euros to dollars)
You can wire Solesmes the money through your bank and probably save a small bundle. But while you're doing it, get the Liber Cantualis, the Liber Hymnarius, and the Psalterium Monasticum. Makes a great set.
Spend the REAL money on a used book: the Liber Usualis, now out of print (1932 edition is fine.) Haunt the used-book shops. Worth about $200-$400 in decent shape, and has EVERYTHING.
