The Orchestra Musician's CD-ROM Library
Here
is a way to build a personal library of orchestral repertoire. This
is a series of CD roms that contain the Kalmus editions of a large
number of original complete oboe parts.
There
are four volumes in the series containing 200 orchestral works by
Beethoven, Schubert, Mendelssohn, Berlioz, Weber, Rossini, Donizetti,
Auber and Cherubini and many others.
All
of the parts on the cd roms are read with a free program called
Adobe Acrobat Reader, and the parts can all be printed out.
Although
they are Kalmus parts, and we all know that there are famous mistakes
in each one, it would cost you a mini-fortune to buy each printed
part separately. This is definitely a fantastic option.
Below
are the editions for oboe, but if you would like to find the cd's
for all the other orchestral instruments, go over to Sheet-Muisc-Search.com and they are listed.
The
following are available for oboe:
|
Tchaikovsky and More The Orchestra Musician's CD-ROM Library - Oboe. By Peter Ilyich Tchaikovsky. Misc. Size 9x12 inches. 6 pages. Published by Hal Leonard. (220116)

There
is a Volume 5: "Dvorak, Rimsky Korsakov and more" which
has a scheduled release date of March 15, 2005, as well as a volume
6 and 7 which will be announced soon according to the company.
This
is good stuff, especially if you don't own the complete parts to
these pieces. Remember that during orchestral auditions, many times
the parts other than the excerpts are asked for. Be prepared for
that. Learn the whole piece.
