Subj: Re: [kl] Instrumentation order

Thank you Dee, Benjamin, and Karl, but I have oodles of other
instrumentation/people to deal with - how about saxes, amplified clarinets,
electric guitars, the whole slew of percussion instruments, accordions,
euphonium, bagpipes, the gamut of electronic modifiers, multiple choruses,
even multiple conductors! I use this data not only to describe the
instrumentation, but also to count the number of performers required (tape
gets listed as instrumentation with 0 players required, orchestras as
instrumentation with 99 players :^)

There's got to be something somewhere that lists out the order or tells me
the correct order. Traditional scores are, well, traditional. I've got a
couple of thousand contemporary instrumentation lists that disagree with one
another in the order already :^)

I need to standardize the ordering so _you_ all can find what you want.

Cheers,
mark C.
