Re: Transpose in partiture?

Most orchestral scores, and every band score so far as I know, show the instruments at their written pitch. Conductors are perfectly used to this.

However, some orchestral scores show concert pitch, though octave-transposed instruments like the piccolo and contrabass will probably still be at written pitch.

If you use notation software, rather than pencil and paper, this shouldn't be an issue; the software should let you display and print it either way.

If there are so many people on this board unwilling or unable to have a civil and balanced discussion about important issues, then I shan't bother to post here any more.

To the great relief of many of you, no doubt.
