Hi, how can i indicate a cello player for instance, that i want them to hit 
their instrument like a percussion instrument?
how can i tell a pianist that i want him to play on the strings of the piano? 
how can i indicate to play clusters on the piano? 

sometimes when writing parts for piano there are passages which pass between 
the hands, but it makes sense to write them out in one stave as it's easier to 
read. how can i indicate which hand to play in when i write all the music on 
one stave? 
On the harp how can i indicate that i want the player to slide their finger up 
and down the string to create a windy sort of sound. 

 a technique which brass players sometimes use is to tap their instrument with 
a pencil, how can i notate this?

Finally, on the horn how can i tell the player whether to play stopped or 
unstopped?

I know these are a lot of questions, but any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance
