Unfortunately I now can't remember why we went for the Compusic
edition. The orchestra was paying for the parts, so there was no
particular reason to hold back. I remember reading an extended essay
(on the Web?) by Destro, and that swaying me against spending the
extra money, but I can't for the life of me remember why.

The other players weren't particularly happy with how the Compusic
parts were laid out, I remember -- there was a lot of photocopying and
sticking -- but of course having laboured in Sibelius for several
hours myself in order to minimise the effort for the C clarinets, I
didn't pay too much attention to their wails;-)
