Greg:
Tenor parts are usually read down an octave in treble clef, or in the same 
octave in bass cleff.  You would never use tenor clef.  That is rarely used for 
anything these days, occasionally for cello and trombone.

  Subject: [ddots-l] Working it out


  Well once I just printed out the choir music, took out the piano and flute, 
it doesn't take so much, only about four pages. I think this might work for our 
purposes. Now I guess it automatically places the tenor voice on the treble 
cleff? But when I changed it to, tenor clef, and even tried bass clef, Sally 
said the notes obscured some of the lyrics, and went off the staff. Huh. So for 
now I have it back in the treble cleff, and the pitches are correct anyway. 
Anybody have any thoughts on this tenor problem?
