Hi Ray,

Point well taken - I was simply mentioning that it was unlikely that you would find a whole website of reproduced tuba excerpts for the reason that it would be frowned upon greatly by the publishers that hold the copyrights for that music. However, you can get away with it more easily as an individual in the manner that I described ;)

Fact is at the beginning of one's career (like college or so) it can be prohibitive to buy large collections of excerpts, if not impossible (try and buy a book of Shostkovich excerpts and you'll see what I mean). And while I agree with you in principle, I also know that sometimes you find yourself in "hook or crook" mode - my guess was that the person that asked might not be able to throw down a big chunk of change on excerpt books so I offered some alternative sources. Raise your hand if you're as guilty as I am :)
