Hi,

Unfortunately I don't own the appropriate literature to look this up at home, perhaps those with access can help me out? I need to find out the exact scoring of certain symphonic works, some mainstream some not. I need the wind scoring, percussion etc. (If anyone knows a web page where I can look this up myself, that would be excellent!)

It isn't on the web, but the standard work in English is David Daniels' book, "Orchestral Music: A Handbook," now in its 4th edition.

Here we go:
