Copyright Information

Because all of the works included in this collection are protected by copyright law, obtaining adequate permission from publishers to reproduce these excerpts became another important consideration.  Every attempt was made to contact the publishers of these works to obtain permission to reprint short excerpts for inclusion in this site.  The presentation of short sections of only the horn parts to these compositions prevents this project from being used as a substitute for actual performing parts, and will hopefully provide greater exposure for these compositions.  In all cases, both publisher and copyright information are included at the end of each group of excerpts from a specific composition.  It is my sincere wish that the presentation of these excerpts will encourage brass musicians to seek out the complete parts and purchase them for study and performance.
