I can't seem to locate a copy of the sheet music or a score anywhere, any help is appreciated.

Nor will you. The piece is a rental and the score is published by Ricordi, and it is out of print. Great tune. Hopefully someone has played it and has a part. Good Luck.

I bought a mini score for this piece in the mid 90's from Dale Music in Silver Spring, MD. No special order, just walked in and bought.

And I was sent to the same place by a conducting teacher looking for the same piece. Out of print and out of stock, of course this was 2004 and I haven't looked again. I'm glad someone got it, I would GLADLY take a study score just to see if the tuba part looks as hard as it sounds.

Sorry, but I don't think that's what they were going for.

I assume they were looking for this:

By the way...if you don't have this recording, get it!

Has anyone tried ordering the study score?

Seems odd that SMP would keep a listing if the score was OOP--but not unlikely.

Here's another offering:

Sheet Music Service claims to have a miniature score published by Schirmer:

Personally, I like the Church Windows recording done by Philly with Ormandy conducting. It's incredible but sadly no longer in print. I wanna call Sony and get 'em to put it back out, I feel it's a finer recording than Cincinnati although that one is good.
