Double Bass Dvorak and Rachmaninoff

[B. Graham]

Next month I'm going to be auditioning for a civic symphony in NC. Criteria is that the players be able to handle to material (obviously). They've told me two selections they'll be doing for this season:

Dvorak - Symphony No. 6
Rachmaninoff - Rhapsody on a theme by Paganini

Does anyone have some info on the bass part from either or both pieces? Is there a resource online where I can order just the particular part I need to study? I've checked Lemur, but it's a no go on both.

Thanks.

That's where I get my parts. They'll send it to you.

Some of the better metropolitan and university libraries have extensive collection of orchestral scores and parts. You could copy the bass parts from these selections which are both fairly popular and are probably available, especially at the Univeristy music library.
