The Orchestra Music Library
The Southeast Kansas Symphony Orchestra has an extensive music library available for students, faculty,
and community musicians. We invite you to make this a resource for your professional
development and performance opportunities.
The Music Library, located in room 110 Whitesitt Hall, is organized into three
main sections: parts,
scores, and miniature scores.
Works ranging from symphonies and concerti to chamber pieces are available for research and practice.
The Symphony, Band, and Jazz Libraries share campus extension 4471
(620-235-4471 from off-campus), so if you call us please specify which collection you
are interested in.
In addition, we are in the process of cross-referencing our catalogs with the
recordings available in the PSU Music Deptartment's Listening Lab.
If you need a title that is not available in the Music Library, it may be available at
the Axe Library - check their online
catalog for holdings. If it is not owned at Axe, you may be able to obtain
it for a short time on Interlibrary Loan. Please contact
this department directly for more information.
