Yeah, the orchestral parts and score are not for sale - rental only. I don't think they're too expensive though. Be careful though, the parts and score are very illegible and full of mistakes.

There is a study score available for purchase - it is a computer generated score, not the handwritten scrawl available for rental. This leads me to believe that somewhere all the parts are on someone's computer, available for printing... and for some reason they don't have the sense to make readable parts available for rental. Can anyone add to this or clarify???

Mike Roylance perfomed that version on his Masters Recital. Very effective.
