Hi everyone,

With all of the talk of auditioning and excerpts, I was wondering if there are
any other excerpt books out there besides the now-defunct International Music
set. I have five of the books, but never got the rest (that was years ago). I'm
principle clarinet in an orchestra that prides itself in its wide variety of
programming, and having access to excerpts would really help when we get
the programming list for each upcoming season. (Of course I don't have book
VIII so I can't check out the "Daphnes" excerpt.)

Thanks for any info you can give.

Nancy

P.S. One more quick question - unrelated. In the Stravinsky Three Pieces-
Mvt. ll - last septuplet - do you play B natural or B flat? I just brought the piece
out of a many year retirement and have been arguing with myself about the
one note. Thanks again.
