The easiest thing to do (since that music is "rental") is to copy that big solo straight from the score. It really isn't THAT much to copy, and you will NEVER be asked any part from "Fountains" other than "that" part in an audition.

If your town does not have a library with a "Fountains" score on their shelf, consider inter-library loan, or simply purchasing a copy of the score.

*******************

Unsolicited Comments: Up until 20 or so years ago, that part and a couple of other parts (such as the "Cloudburst" movement of "Grand Canyon Suite") were "faked" 99% of the time. These days, there are scores of undergraduate students who can actually "play" these parts well.

Tuba tootin' has come a long way!
