To my knowledge, there are no commercially available transcriptions of Dave's work. Better for you in the short and long term. Buy the album, transcribe it yourself.

Sit down with cd or tape play and do one measure at a time. Use a piano, pitch pipe or your tuba to help you out. If you can't figure out a couple of beats try to analyse the end of the run and then work backwords. If a rhythm seems too complex to notate then simplify it for your self. Example....instead of trying to write a swing rhythm, just write straight eighth notes. instead of some 64th note, write it as a grace note.

Be strong, do it and learn
