VW Concerto Band Part Errors - Denis Wick Arrangement

Post by joshwirt »

Does anyone have the corrected Tuba/String Bass parts for the Denis Wick band arrangement? I bought the set back in the Fall for an upcoming performance and at the first rehearsal, the conductor found out that the Band Tuba and String Bass parts are all in wrong keys?!? I have emailed Denis Wick Publishing but apparently they are no longer in business.

Has anyone else encountered this and were you able to get replacement parts?

Thanks,

**UPDATE**

Out of the kindness of a fellow TubeNetter, I was able to obtain the correct Band Tuba/String Bass parts.

Also in the search for a solution, I discovered that Denis Wick Publications' site is now closed and the Wind Band accompaniment will now be sold here:

https://shop.strato.de/epages/15502304. ... 998-101%22

It's worth asking the seller if the Band Tuba/String Bass parts have been corrected before purchasing so that you don't run into the same problem I did.
