I don't know about downloading scores, but Dover publishes many of the scores that are in public domain, at reasonable prices.

There are a bunch here:

My sister wanted my brother (bass trombone) and I to play for her wedding.

She wanted the Wedding March from the Marriage of Figaro as a processional and Ode to Joy for a recessional. So I downloaded the scores for the Mozart Opera and Beethoven's 9th and arranged them from that.

As a second recessional, for everybody else after the wedding party had left, my sister wanted a polka as a surprise for her new husband (Polish ancestory). So I arranged the Pennsylvania Polka. The groom came back into the wedding hall to here us play it.

There are a few complete scores

And a number of Russian sites have scans of orchestral music online, but in general, complete scores are hard to work with online, so there aren't many online sources.

I tried the above link and found no scores, no player updates, no injury reports, nothing. Try the ESPN site on Saturday for up-to-the-minute score updates on all college games. Even schools with crappy football teams like Indiana, Kentucky, Kansas, Washington, Arizona State, etc. have their scores posted.

Here's a football score for this Saturday:

God's School 42
Indiana 3

You should know which school God's is.

Do you mean MUSIC scores? Oh, can't help you.

Funny, I thought Penn State was playing God's team this weekend. Or is it Michigan. Oh that's right, He has more than one team.

Either way, is suspect with His busy schedule right now, He won't be able to help either of his Eastern teams and the Big Ten racks up two more wins this weekend.
