NOTATIO

David, every experienced trombone player will understand the reasoning behind this, but some mediocre conductors won't. Don't you think a footnote in the score would help make it clear?

John's solution looks good to me.

To come back to Sebastian again: I very much recommend to change the name to also avoid conflicts with existing installations of the old Sebastian v1 font. Nasty font cache updates are probably required and/or several font files may exist in the Windows font folders. There will also be conflicts wi...

I have contributed to some of the reviews on scoringnotes.com, and while we are always explicitly encouraged to voice our critique, the general spirit is usually extremely posit...
