Subj: [kl] Basset Horn Question
Date: Sun, 20 Mar 2011 18:23:12 -0400


I want to begin writing a clarinet quartet... the problem is I never played basset horn (in F) before and I never even saw music for it. Finale is auto generating the basset horn to have a bass clef... is that normal? I thought basset was the same as alto just in F not Eb in which case it would be in treble. I mean... I've seen contra parts in treble so I dont see why basset would be bass but if that is standard practice then I'd like to leave it that way.

Thanks

Tom
