FIRST CONCERT SET
Musicians Download your Parts:
• imslp.org has parts for the Haydn and Berlioz (see below) however the Berlioz parts are very poor.
• The Prokofiev is rental only and the parts will arrive August 5.
• Wind players will receive via email a list of edit markings to input into the Haydn parts in advance of the first tutti rehearsal. There will also be a list of Berlioz edits for wind players however, the online parts are in poor condition so we will have a new, clean set of parts to hand out at the first tutti rehearsal.
• The edited string parts for the Haydn will be sent out in the next week (around July 20) and those for the Berlioz soon afterwards.
• Note that most printers have a setting that allows you to adjust the size of the printing; Try printing one page only to find the correct percentage/% setting that maximizes the size of the music and minimizes the width of the margins!
