Need Orchestral Excerpts Fast

[Himes]

Hi everybody. At school this semester the regular orchestra director is on sybatical and the substitute very recently changed the orchestral audition procedures. (That's the short of it)

Does anyone have a PDF scan (or know the location of one) of Die Meistersinger and Symphonie Fantastique (primarily the Dies Irae section)? I am going to be scouring the local libraries, but I doubt they will have orchestral excerpt books with the parts I need (believe it or not). The kicker: I have about 24 hours from now to acquire these parts. I've played both before, but have never owned them. Any help would be greatly appreciated and can be sent to himes@susqu.edu" target="_blank.

Thanks very much,

Himes

It does not help your 24 hour issue, but it will help for the future:

I now have a couple PDFs of the needed excerpts! Thanks a million to those of you who sent me parts. I really appreciate it!

Regards,

Guess what? I am 50 miles from home and have a rehearsal scheduled in yet another town. Prelude to Meistersinger is up. I have my horn, access to a printer and NO PART. The librarian said he mailed it to my home but I'll have no chance to go home to check - and it may not be there yet anyway. Yeah, I know, but he's a friend of mine, so I won't strangle him.

Does anyone have a pdf they can pm me?

Many thanks to Chris for sending me the pdf yesterday. Rehearsal went swimmingly. Meanwhile, the original part still hasn't reached me by snail mail.
