    Might as well set up another ongoing thread...

    Here's what I am aware of for sources of buying sheet music, methods books, etc. that lean more toware the classical.

    Trekel (Germany)

    Joseph Patelson Music House (US) -- they do not seem to have their online act together yest and when I have visited the stock of mandolin music seems to be dwindling. However we of the mandolin community can encourage this store to continue to carry and import these works.

    Any others?

    I just discovered Elibron from a link on the FMI site.

    They boast "over 50,000 music scores on paper and as PDF files"

    Here is a list of relevant classical works -- many of these are not available as yet or may be printed or scanned on demand.

    Ali, John and others:
    I meant this to be a "mandolin publishers of note" thread. I certainly am not one to be the be-all and end-all source of these things.

    Actually it seems like we have two semi parallel threads, this one being the more extensive.

    Alos, let's not forget Victor's Greco-Mando Editions.
