Double Bass German musical terms

[jmnbass]

Can anybody here suggest a good german to english music dictionary? I am playing a Mahler symphony and am having a tough time deciphering all the performance directions.

Oh man.. I have a "cheat-sheet" (legit, from actual score) from when I did Mahler's 3rd a few years ago, w/ translations for all the markings in the score. I'll see if I can dig it up.

Most of it means "look at the conductor".

The back of the Strauss Zimmerman has a nice glossary
