Is it really true that you do not get credit for a double for saxophone on Broadway? In other words, if I'm playing a Reed I book that calls for flute, piccolo, Bb clarinet, alto saxophone and soprano saxophone, that I would only get 2 doubles? But I had Bb Clarinet, Eb Clarinet and bass clarinet, even though all clarinets, that I would still get 2 doubles. Now, please don't misunderstand...I have more respect for Local 802 and the producers of Broadway productions that almost any other group of folks, but isn't that rule (if my interepretation is correct) a bit unfair? I do believe in a recording studio or a motion picture scoring session, each saxophone is a double and is compensated as such.
Please correct me if I'm wrong.
