Charles Williams 1950 - Sally Tries The Ballet
on: December 07, 2014, 02:26:25 AM
Cool lesser known solo by that kool kat that have us the dream of Olwen and jealous lover.
Subtitle to the piece
Sally wants to be a ballet dancer. Not being used to ballet shoes she comes to grief once or twice but eventually manages to keep her equilibrium

Perf time is 3:00

Anyone have a lead on whew I can buy or borrow a score. If anyone has it can you please pm me so we can maybe arrange a scan swap? Or something agreeable?
Thanks in advance
Oh  have audio recording so only looking for the score it is scarce enough that I am ok w a purchase or lend from a library ( am in us so uk or eu library Ill is not possible for me )

You can apparently order a pdf copy from the British Library.

WorldCat indicates no US libraries as having a copy, and the National Library here also draws a blank.

many thanks. I always go through checking w libraries first and knew the British one has one but was really hoping I was being sloppy and I missed one somehow in the US... Will start the contact process w them to see if they can get me a personal use scan as it rally does seem that's my only hope until u find one in a vintage shop someday...thanks again!! :)

One hopes that's not a typo.   ;D

Good luck!

a happy accident. though i guess either 'u' or 'i' works equally well there, as it seems every time i am out for something scarce/rare you inevitably beat me to the single retail copy available!  ;D I of course would be much obliged if you could let me know if something turns up under a rock on your end ;)

Are you still looking for this music? There’s a rather expensive copy for sale on eBay at the moment. Cheers.
