I'm certain that there are rentals SOMEWHERE that provide it - it's truly
an adventuresome piece (yeah...that's a good word!). LOTS of fun to play,
and the melody is actually quite distinguishable. ^_^

(Maybe simply because it's 12 tone, but doesn't utilize a matrix or any of
those pesky non-repeat rules.)
