I played my first transposed (by hand) pieces with our group of three (clarinet, violin, and keyboard) last night. Sounded pretty good, but I wanted to make sure I'm transposing correctly.
Following the rule of the circle of fifths, when a song is in the key of C: example, Danny Boy: I transposed up one whole note, and add two sharps, F and C. When it's in the key of F major, with one flat, b, I again go up one whole note, erase the flat, and add one sharp, F.
I'm not an on-site transposer, at least not yet. When we play new music, I play the soparno recorder when them until I can get the music transposed.
If there is a program that I can get to do the transposing for me, someone please clue me in.
