Pender's Music (which also now owns Sheet Music Service of Portland) stocks most of the books.

A couple of them are GATT restricted books and are "out of print." Though the agreement deals with much more than sheet music, for tuba players it restricts the sale/export of some Russian works which is why volume 14 and 15 are unobtainable...Shostakovich Symphonies. The Prokofiev books and Stravinsky books are available along with other Russians like Tchaikovsky.

The set has been supplemented by a few volumes published by Encore Music, and now includes a volume of Elgar.

Probably the most difficult book to locate (other than the two Shostakovich volumes) is the 20th Century Orchestral Studies book, which includes works like Sensemaya.
The Darling Of The Thirty-Cents-Sharp Low D♭'s.
