Simple enough. If you are at school as you said, you can request it that way, without making photo copies, and it should be free through your school library. When I was in college I did this alot for multiple projects

Hi Clarke,

Hello, just wondering if anyone has a copy of the sheet music for Fnugg they would be willing to email me. I will not be using it for performance, I only want to see how the extended technique is notated for a school project. Thank you.

I will be the jerk first and then try to help you at the end of this email:

I posted this in another thread, but here it is again. Substitute words as you wish, but it covers what you are doing and the legalities.

1. It will be illegal for someone to copy/scan the music into a computer as this book is not in the Public Domain.

2. It will be illegal for that same person to send you the file through email as you have requested.

3. It will be illegal for you to receive and then print out the files.

4. It will be illegal for you to then use these printouts in your lesson.

Although you may be short on funds (aren't we all?), here are the people you would taking money away from by photocopying:

1. The publisher
2. The store you may have purchased the book from
3. The composer/arranger of the music
4. The distributor of music.

And one wonders why it is hard to make a living in music?

In the case of Fnugg, since Oystein is a member of the forum (memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&u=899" target="_blank" target="_blank) it might not be the best place to ask someone to email you a copy of his piece. I would try emailing Oystein here:

or if you are on Facebook, contacting him here:

or sending along a message via a private message on TubeNet via the link above.

Although you state it will not be used for performance, asking a Forum member to email a piece written by another Forum member is just not the right way to go about acquiring the information you need for this project.

With all that being said, I think some of us might be curious about the project when it is completed and might even enjoy checking it out!

Yea, Mr BVD!

That said, too, if the OP has questions about the multiphonics, f'rinstance, it's simple--just notate the played pitch normally, the sung pitch with a diamond head. I'll have to listen to it again to be sure what else is used, but anything else will be just as simple.

The library who owns the copy for interlibrary loan which is used for research as you would want it to

Fnugg is fast becoming a staple in modern tuba recital literature. It is reasonably inexpensive (how much did you spend on your tuba?) It is readily available. Why NOT just spend a couple bucks and order it? You will use it again and again.

Can't the younger students on this forum use search engines and basic library materials and worldcat?

I want to re-emphasize what Bryan at BVD Press posted. No "jerk" - just telling it like it is. Its difficult enough making a living in the music business, whether you are a performer, a composer/arranger, publisher, promoter, what have you - but expecting free services is a little presumptuous. Should we accept freebie gigs time after time? Free music is no different. That is why there are laws in place - called copyright.

Please respect your fellow musicians/writers/publishers/etc. by not stealing from them.

Heres what a wise professor once told me about copying music.

The music is not to be copied for use of others. For example, I have had solos with bad page turns (and the pianist as well) and we would copy that page for our use to express musicality (of course in Penderecki ITEA article he says the page turn should be interpreted as a pause. This is your music and you are copying pages to make it more musical on your half and your NOT giving them to anyone to avoid buying the music. I know I had to do this with the alternate cadenza last time I played the Gregson concerto a few years back.

However, photocopying music to avoid purchase as with the original poster is strictly illegal
