Music Question

[JCAEdge21]

I'm not sure if this is under the right category but whatever.

I was wondering if anyone knows where I can get the sheet music/score to Illuminations: ROE. I contacted disney and they couldn't help me out, so i thought i'd come here for help. I'm a senior in high school and i'd love to play this song for band in my final year in school. if anyone could help me out that would be amazing. thank you.....

Sorry, but because of copyright laws, this sounds like a big 'ole "Ain't gonna happen" scenario.

Actually, I believe it IS out there for sale somewhere. I recall someone else on the boards awhile back that bought a copy of it, and used it to make a MIDI...

I've looked and can't seem to find anything, there is always the option of transcribing.

Found the thread! The discussion is here, and the sheet music mentioned is here. (the thread makes mention of buying parts of it, so it wasn't actually $75...)

Hi there. I'm not sure what website you found it on, but I found it on jwpepper.com. I'm a junior in high school and was also interested in playing it. If you haven't already, order the score for ROE and and show it to your director. I did the same with ROE, Tapestry of Nations/Chaos, and We GO On. But of course the band director denied it because we only play music no one but himself has ever heard. Of course it all stinks and is no fun to play. Sorry for lashing out on the forum, I'm just jealous that you may get to play it, but I hope you do because it's a great piece. HAVE FUN!!!!!!!!!!!:wave:

My HS band instructor bought the sheet music from Disney (I think he got is while we were in out Magic Music Days workshop) during our trip there in 2000. We played (run to room to find sheet music) RoE, Tapestry of Nations/Chaos, and We Go On for our fieldshow in the fall of 2000. It was a great show, nothing close to the people who performed it at DCI that year though.

I got a copy of the scores from JWPepper.com. I'm planning on adapting them to a warm up exercise for my band.
The titles are:

Tapestry of Nations/Chaos
We Go On
Reflections of Earth (Life, Adventure, Celebration)

I agree!

I was at Magic Kingdom the Saturday after Veteran's Day and a marching band was parading the park playing ROE and We Go On. I was not expecting to hear that at all and was totally surprised.

The DCI version was AWESOME! Good luck.
