r.p.> I, too, have heard that many instrumentalists (specifically
r.p.> violinists) prefer leger lines to 8va symbols. I can accept this up to
r.p.> 5-leger-line (and a half) c4. Do players really prefer leger lines
r.p.> even higher?

Few people will be able to sight-read parts that are consistently above c4
anyways, so it probably doesn't matter.  Violin part 8va in more common ranges
(up to B or C) drives me nuts, even though I'm used to reading octave
transpositions on the piano.  SO I think Daniel Dorff's theory is correct.
