I'm playing Reed I in "9 to 5 - The Musical" this summer (piccolo, flute, clarinet, alto sax). Fortunately for me, piccolo only appears in a couple places (my weakest double). I know this is a relatively new show, so I was wondering is anyone has played it. If so, what did you think of it? Anything I should watch out for?
The Reed I book has more alto sax than anything else (clarinet is my primary instrument). Interestingly, the flute fingerings came back to me quicker than some of the sax ones did. It took me a while to figure out why most of the sax stuff in there is in god-awful key signatures (F# Major and B Major being common ones). Then, I remembered that there are guitar and bass parts. So, a lot of stuff lies nicely for them in A Major and D Major. Darn string players The production is at the end of June. The musicians' first rehearsal is on June 9th and I'm excited (plus, it's a paying gig and that certainly doesn't hurt). My boyfriend is the drum kit player and it's great to be able to do another show with him at my side.
