I will be playing in this musical at the end of this month. The director found an accordian player who has also played Oliver on clarinet and bass clarinet. I got the following instrumentation from bpimental's site:
1: Piccolo, flute
2: Oboe, English horn
3: Clarinet, bass clarinet
4: Bassoon
The director is considering having the accordian player look at the reed 1 book and conductor's score to extract an accordian part. I think this is because I told him that I played reed 2 in last year's musical assuming that he would be able to find a reed 1 player. Anyway he asked me what I thought about this.
I am thinking it may be better for me to play reed 1 and the other guy reed 3, and then cover any other parts as necessary.
If I take reed 1 I will probably just play flute and not piccolo. Does anyone know whether reed 1 is mainly piccolo, or flute? Also, how do you think we could cover the remaining reed 2 and 4 parts? I play saxes, clarinet, bass clarinet, and flute. I have a piccolo but it's not really playable. Thanks.
