Double Bass Excerpt PDF / DVD / CD-ROM / "The Book" ?!?!

[ninnlangel]

Hi,

I'm looking for a comprehensive set of double bass orchestral parts in PDF format, something covering everything from baroque to 20th century music. Can someone recommend some collection, DVD, CD-Rom, even a "fake book" style thing (a friend of mine has a great collection in the format of a few spiral bound volumes), I would rather something unedited (no fingerings!) because I play tuned in fifths, so any fourths fingerings will just be in the way.

I'm sorry if this comes up a lot, I tried some talkbass and google searches and couldn't come up with anything.

Also, I want the full parts, not just the licks. I need this because I want to learn a lot of repertoire, but also because my reading is pretty bad, and I figure reading a couple symphonies a day should remedy that quite well.

Thanks!

NL

Hey Ninn,
Check out the Orchestra Musician's CD-ROM library. I haven't used it, but it seems to be what you're looking for.

Please say hello to Joel for me.

Best,
Alex

This seems to be only one CD as apposed to the http://www.orchmusiclibrary.com/ set of CD's.

Opinions?????

Thanks guys, I was being lazy with my searches. I found the "Orchestral Musician's CD-Rom Library" and it seems to do the trick!

How's it going Alex? I haven't seen Joel lately, but I'll be at orford. Are you coming this year?
