Torchinsky Tuba Repertoire books?

Post by Art Hovey »

Just curious: Are the Shostakovich books still in print?
I could not find them on the Encore Music website.

the elephant wrote:They were pulled after a few years due to the GATT treaty, I believe. Whatever the reason, they have not been available for many years now. I never snagged copies, which is too bad, I guess. I have all the other ones, though.
The 20th century books/Shastakovich books are rare as duck lips. I have one, but only by inheritance. Treasures.

I have the 20th century, and had the shosty for a little while. Sold it, because I had no actual use for it, and I hate just collecting things that don't get used.
