My band has Trumpets, Drums, Trombones, Saxophones, Flutes, and Clarinets. Are there any scores for Beethoven's Fifth without any strings?

just the first one or two movements (Full movements). We don't have strings but I'm hoping we can manage. If you can find the full length symphony then great! Send it! but i at least am looking for the first two movements.

Ikr? I've never been in a school band with strings, elementary middle or high school 😢

My band director loved the idea and we're both trying to get the scores despite the lack of such an important instrument!

My daughter's orchestra (strings) used to do sets with the band...pretty amazing quite honestly.

I was thinking about using an orchestral VST on the keyboard to simulate the strings but thinking about it it's kinda impossible to play them live properly I said something stupid

That's okay! I make mistakes too!

Full length? Or excerpts from each movement?
