Just as the title says. I was given the wrong arrangement in my folder and the librarian can only find page 1 of the 1st tbone part. Next performance is Monday. I would appreciate any help getting page 2. Thanks!

I assume this is a concert band piece--right? Some publishers indicate that you can purchase separate parts. There are also the university libraries. But getting ahold of this by Monday is a tall order unless somebody reading this forum can offer immediate help.

That is what I was hoping. I highly doubt our librarian looked for the second page anyplace but our paper files. I would prefer not to fake it if I don't have to.

I expected the first page of the first trombone part, he gave me both pages of the baritone part. I found the music for sale on J.W. Pepper, tried to order it, got "The publisher or manufacturer has sold out of their stock and does not plan to produce more. This item will be canceled from your order". Yikes! Tell me, if it is out of stock and no more is available, why is it listed on their website???? The search continues...

When do you need it? I though it was for tonight. I know another community band with a large library that I can check to see if they have it if there is enough time. I also checked several university libraries but found nothing there.

Our band plays weekly at a different nursing home, senior center, assisted living, etc. and will play it several more times this season. Any help would be appreciated!

The band I thought might have it does not. Have you considered borrowing the conductor's score and create the second page yourself from the score? You can get free music notation software that will help you, or write it yourself on staff paper.

Our local high school has a copy and will get it to me, but the director is on vacation, so it may not be until next week. Hope that works.

Hadn't thought of that!

That would be fantastic! No way can I get the score and write it out by then anyway. PM me when you have it and I'll give you an address.

This chat group is fantastic, BTW!

Read page 1 at a concert tonight. It was in a "large print" version for the former 1st bone who had vision problems. If you could sent both pages, I would really appreciate it!

Just got the part yesterday. Thanks so much! This is one of the reasons I love this site - trombonist helping out fellow trombonists.
