This page is dedicated to sharing libraries that lend themselves to building orchestral arrangements from reusable elements, which is only one of many different ways of composing with Synfire (albeit a popular one). Collecting large numbers of phrases can take some time. Importing and dissecting the works of classical composers is one way to speed that up (and learn something along the way).
The attached libraries provide plenty building blocks for drag & drop fun. Ultimately you will have to collect your own libraries if you want your music to be distinct and recognizable as your own.
Bruckner-Snippets: This library contains all the snippets as seen in the "Snippets" tutorial. They are based on VSL Synchron Prime Edition but should work with any sound library. You may need to check articulations, though.
Construct Orch: Following andre's blog post this is the library he came up with. It is a mix of different styles and phrasings that you can extend according to your tastes.
Over time more libraries will be added. Also check out the post for piano libraries.

Interesting to experiment with this soundlibrary : VSL Synchron Prime Edition
But, i don't have this library
To get interaction with users of Synfire with different orchestral soundlibrary is impossible, agree ?

It should work with all libraries. You need to fix the articulations of course.

i tried to follow the tutorial orchestral with other library then VSL Synchron Prime Edition, but it was not a success?
Its not a one -one translation possible, so intented tone colouring disappear.
A limited imitation of the original tutorial orchestral as endresult, but that's ok and don't aspect too much of it.
It stands on its own, with another library
