Today's accomplishment
Oct. 29th, 2006 07:39 pmFrom the to-do list:
Copy 2 pages of bari sax part to Colas Breugnon from score into Finale, because the bari sax part that BACB has is missing those two pages and no one else in the state seems to have a copy of that part in this particular transcription and edition.
(And in the process, learn a few more of Finale's shortcuts, and get some practice reading scores. And some bewilderment at the total randomness of when publishers (or was it the composer? Or the arranger?) choose to use the word cresc. and when they choose to use the crescendo marking, and likewise with dim. and lots of other random things - including, in this particular arrangement, for some reason Walter Beeler has decided that a small chunk in the middle of the 200's shall have no key signature whatsoever - we go from concert F to no key signature for a while and then back to concert F. Since the no-key-signature part still has accidentals on practically every note, exactly as it would if there were a key signature, what was the purpose of changing the key signature? Note to self: do not ever do that in self's own arrangements, now that self knows how nutso it can drive others.)
Tomorrow: mail CPA license renewal forms, mail books to
elfbiter, finish bookcrossing books so that I can mail them...
