My local concert band is playing Alford's Army of the Nile, but it's a Fennell edited edition or someone else's edited edition. I've been looking for an original part. I've tried http://www.bandmusicpdf.org/, which is a great source for the really old stuff (including the original 1921 edition of the Holst First Suite for Band in Eb, not the 1924 that's so common), but it's not there. Other Googling hasn't located it.

Does anyone know of a free online source for the original, unedited edition?

Finding the tuba part out of the context of a reduced score and a full part set for military or brass band isn’t likely (military band is the British term for their concert bands).

Not to disencourage you, but I have looked for the music for this march for years, but havn’t found it on the web. I would soon go broke, if I bought all the music I want to study rather than perform.

Here you go! This should be the original part, no editors listed, copyright 1941. My community band plays this version.
