All-

I notice that qPress has a reasonable range of tuba music in PDF. Are there other publishers who offer this kind of thing?

Thanks

Are you a member of IMSLP?

Tons of stuff there. You have to pay a small fee for full access, but worth it in my opinion.

Many major publishers now have download and print versions of their catalogs for a lower cost than printed format, and you get it right then, rather than weeks later. I just bought three things for about $15 that would normally have cost well over $50 with shipping. I printed them and was playing them thirty minutes later.

and we’re all assuming that no one is referring to the “underground” ones...

You mean "theft"? Never. No one here ever openly asks others for links to stolen music. :facepalm2:

I am only interested in legit music (?) - I'm very happy to pay for people's work.

The IMSLP suggestion is a very good one- there are a number of useful things there.

But back to my original question- are there particular publishers people recommend?

yeah...Links are passed around to huge caches of sheet music. That info - when it happens to reach me - STOPS with me.

What a fabulous resource! Thanks! I'm now the proud possessor of several Sousa scores.
