Tim,
That's kinda what i was asking.. Can those who wish to playÂ
in the Jam, transpose or use Treble or Bass clef music?
So, the question is: what is needed for those who can't do
just normal G clef, or Treble clef and F clef or Bass clef
written music?Â
My Dad and Bruce are willing to do the transposing, but
we need to know now... can't wait until December gets
here to have time to do this.
And I'm not familiar with enough instruments to know what
the tuning would be for some of the instruments you would
find in an orchestra, for example. Saxaphone - i know many
saxophones have different tunings and I believe you
read from differently written music, but I"m not sure
about those. I don't play or teach the sax.Â
Bruce does... so he would know...Â
Sorry to hear, Tim, that you can't make it to this first Jam.Â
Maybe the next one will be more on a date you can attend.
Enjoy your trip and thanks for the input.
More input is apprecaited.
Terri
