Shostakovich Symphony #12

Hi,
My orchestra has programmed Shostakovich's Symphony No. 12 in D minor, Op. 112, The Year 1917 for next season in October. Can anyone offer any insights about the tuba part? I've listened to it several times (Concertgebouw Orch). It seems to have a fairly extensive tuba part. Does anyone know how I could access a tuba part sooner than the end of the summer? It is not available at IMSLP. (I guess because of copyright) I've never even seen any excerpts anywhere. Thanks in advance for any info.
Pete

You can request an InterLibrary Loan of the conductor's score.
