Re: Switching quickly between instruments

Smokindok/John - That instrument combo sounds like Shrek. Fun show!

Wobby, logistically I would put the clarinet at 1 o'clock (you're facing 12), the alto sax at 2 o'clock and the bass clarinet at 10/11 o'clock. Each will be easy to hand, the sax is positioned to play on your right side, and the big instrument separated so that you don't hit it with any of the others.

Compare that to the clarinet/flute (c clarinet in this case)/bass clarinet/soprano/tenor/bari setup required for Shrek. I had the c clarinet at 8 (it was the least used, and having it behind kept me from picking it up instead of the Bb), soprano sax at 9, Bb clarinet at 9:30, bass clarinet at 11, tenor at 1 and bari at 3.
