Hey gang,
I was hoping everyone out there could toss me their two cents on where I can find sheet music, lifted or otherwise, from some of the more rare musicals produced.
I'm talking about all the rare shows such as Napoleon (London or Toronto), Bounce, and all the other productions that we never get to see printed...!
Any help would be appreciated.

If you're in NY there is always the NY Public Library at Lincoln Center.
The places I have found sheet music is garage sales. How else would I have acquired the conductor's score to Wildcat, among others?
Also used bookstores.

Posted: 11/5/04 at 1:43amI'd also check eBay. You'd be surprised what you can find there. I located a full score, in German, of Orff's DER MOND.

Posted: 11/5/04 at 9:10pmColony has a great selection, but be prepared to sell some organs if you're looking to buy a lot of music. Their markup is insultingly high.
