Looking for Orchestral Parts

Post by chenderson_86 »

Hey All,
I'm trying to make a big book of excerpts to practice with, but I'm trying to get all from original parts. I'm looking for a few that I can't find on the Gordon Cherry CD or on IMSLP. If any of you have them as a PDF, could you please respond?

Thanks,
Charlie Henderson

Looking for:
Prokofiev - Symphony no. 6 (not from the Torchinsky book)
Gershwin - An American in Paris
Stravinsky - Petrushka, Rite of Spring

I use my Great Big Book of Tuba Excerpts far more than I do the Cherry CD. It is great having all the parts printed in bound book indexed to find and ready to play at any time. Anyone wanting a set of tuba excerpts, then this is the best to get.

Hey Guys,
Thanks for the help in tracking these part down.

I'm also in need of The Rite of Spring, and Delibes' Coppelia (the full ballet if you have it).

If any of you have these handy, could you please shoot me a message?

Thanks,
Charlie

A couple of these links have been posted here before, but check out the last three links in this post on the IMSLP forums.

These appear to be all the Stravinsky works in the public domain, and Le sacre du printemps is one of them. You can download the "Ballets" archive and check out the full, original score and extract the part. They also have an archive for the individual parts, and both tuba parts are there. That should get you that/those part(s). The Gershwin piece is not public domain in the U. S. of America and all I find for the Delibes piece are piano reductions.

Your school's library might have the full scores of the other pieces. You can take those and yank out the parts, leaving you with not just the part, but a more complete understanding of it in the context of the whole orchestra!

Not on the version I have. I think I have an early edition though.

Thanks for the Stravinsky.

Actually, I've found everything else now - and I'm not rewriting the whole ballet part to Coppelia - it's really not worth it to me. I will check Orchestras Canada to see if any nearby orchestras have the parts though (if nobody else has it in PDF).

Thanks again for the help.
