Hey Folks,
I hope someone can offer some assistance. After looking through the Wes Jacobs publication of the Bordogni studies that I borrowed from a friend, I started toying with the idea of making a recording of them with accompaniment. I contacted Encore Publications (Jacobs company) and asked if they had the accompaniments or knew where to get them. They told me they were available through Schirmer. They aren't. Schirmer said try Hal Leonard, their "exclusive print representative". Nothing. They then sent me a link to imslp.org that took me to the only 2 things in the collection ascribed to Bordogni. I looked through every page of both (196 pp.) There is nothing that matches either of the 2 examples on Encore's page. Does anyone know if and/or where to get the keyboard parts for these etudes? Thanks in advance for any assistance.

The Benny Sluchin edition (Tezak Editions) has a separate piano accompaniment books for all three volumes. They're available through Hickeys.
David Schwartz's edition includes an accompaniment CD. Originally, the accompaniment was computer-generated; on the current version (2010), the accompaniment tracks for vols 1 and 2 are performed by Hanako Yamagata (vol. 3 is in the works).
I haven't seen Mulcahy's version. The Tezak versions from Sluchin are reprints of 19th-century pubs. BTW, the model for these was Rossini. Trills begin on upper neighbors;-)
I'm working on an original new edition of the 24 vocalizzi by Marco Bordogni,
Starting from a 1936 original edition for all the voices I found in the library of my conservatory in Pesaro, the book will bo out with tuba and piano part, I'll provide this book with a cd with me performing the complete book with piano accompaniment, trying to illustrate how to perform it on Bel Canto style,
It will take not so long, to book is already done.
