Double Bass Shostakovitch Symphony # 5

[bassbuck]

Help! I have an audition coming up whose repetoire includes the 1st movement from Shostakovich Symphony # 5, 1st Mov't (22-27). Anyone know where I can find this excerpt?

Waiting and hoping,

bassbuck

First, I would suggest calling whoever it is you're auditioning for and see if they have excerpts available to mail to you. If not, you might consider purchasing the Fred Zimmermann excerpt book w/ that stuff in it if you don't have something like that already. It's book #2.

That is a lot to spend if you just need that though...maybe a friend/fellow tb'er w/ a scanner would come in handy.

Also, as I'm sure you would have figured very quickly, it's rehearsal 22-27.

Thanks, BGreaney! The number thing is already corrected. This is one of those auditions where they expect you to have the music. I'll try the Zimmermann book if all else fails.
