There isn't equanimity regarding tying trems together, either - a sus. cym. roll consisting of bars of semibreves with trem slashes above/below ought to sound...
A quick question - when writting for Stopped French Horn do I; - write the pitches I want to sound, the player will make the adjustment? - write the pitches...
Write with the usual transposition - the player will make the adjustment. There are transposing and non-transposing mutes. The hand is also used to stop the...
