I am always on the search for the music of certain song which are out of print. One was "A Soldier on the Shelf." I recently found an incredible place on-line. It is a membership library of old band music... they are trying to save the old arrangements and tunes. There is a yearly fee, plus a fee for each arrangement you borrow. They had a band arrangement of "A Soldier On the Shelf" and it has been a great exercise in transcribing it to a piano/organ arrangement -- this one does not even have a conductor's score. It is coming along great. I will have to scan their catalog of old novelty band numbers to rent others.. before my yearly fee expires. If you are interested,
