Dave,
Trust me on this one. I do this for a living in countries where
PLAYERS, GOOD PLAYERS, don't speak English. In the rare cases where there's
an A at bar 1 of my charts without a pickup bar, and I can't think of one
right this instant, I account for everything. If I do it, and it's not
common, I do it for a reason and the reason is correct.
In the end, respectfully, I'm the one who makes a living in front of
thousands with charts I made myself.
Kevin

Kevin,
Then just tell the performers "Take it from the top". Much simpler for them
than searching for a rehearsal mark amongst the clef, time signature, key
signature, instrument name, metronome or tempo marks that are usually
clustered at that same spot. Throwing a rehearsal mark there, even if
sitting up high just adds clutter for no good reason.
Take it from the top.

There are cases where you need a rehearsal mark on bar 1. If thee is no
pickup in the piece and you have a long score for lots of players, you could
easily need a rehearsal mark at 1.

Justin,
Claudio brings up exactly my question, as well. A rehearsal mark is usually
a marker needed somewhere in the piece. Telling the player to "go to the
beginning of the score" is more meaningful to them than telling them to go
to mark "A" and having them look for it all over the place. Musicians are
not accustomed to looking at the beginning for a rehearsal mark.
That said, you could probably fool Sibelius.
Start your score on bar 2.
leave bar 1 empty
Put your rehearsal mark on bar 2
Delete the preceding bar.
If you already have music on the first bar, see if you can insert a bar at
the beginning and then do the steps above.
Don't know if this will work, but it might.
Dave
much easier to do

Hey, I have another question for you wizards out there. I'm trying to
insert a rehearsal mark so that it is placed at the beginning of bar 1. Does
anyone have any advice on how to do this. Right now, when I am at the
beginning of bar 1 and I press control + R, it shows up at the beginning of
bar 2. Thanks again in advance! Justin
