SHEET MUSIC of TRANSCRIPTIONS
for MIXED SEPTET & OCTET

Transcriptions for both mixed septet & octet of famous orchestral works are available for sale. These are the same challenging arrangements being made popular by CutTime Players and are scored for the "L'Histoire du Soldat" instrumentation as follows:

(Click linked instrument for a few technical considerations)

• violin
• double bass
• clarinet
• bassoon
• trumpet (all parts in C)
• (bass) trombone
• percussion
• flute joins in octets versions only (recommended)


The transcriber Rick Robinson says "Where possible I used the original symphonic licks for these instruments, then fill in what's missing. All parts are somewhat DENSE, requiring STRONG CHOPS and advanced technical proficiency from each player! The extra effort required gives YOU and your audiences the THRILL of SOUNDING LIKE A FULL ORCHESTRA IN CHURCHES AND SCHOOLS!"  Refunds or exchanges will be allowed only for the safe return of UNMARKED music. Please call, fax, or email us for more details. Perusal scores and parts are available for a refundable deposit of $25 each.
