You bring up an interesting point,David. My question is this: Are these musical terms equally applicable to all instruments or should they be "bent" in accordance with each instrument's capabilities? For example, a trombone is constructed so that it may "glide" from a given note to a higher one with no perceptible interval. Although a gifted clarinet player can approach the same mode the clarinet is not constructed to play all of the same intervals that the trombone can. A piano can only approach what a trombone can in the same example and a harp has similar capabilities. String instruments such as the violin have their own limitations.
My second question is: Are these instrumental variations the reason why there is such confusion over the appropriate termininolgy?
Personal comment: Thanks to "Hank" I can now do a reasonable rendition of the named Sax solo on my Alto despite the fact that I cannot really play the sax....yet.
