Even in front of an ensemble that is wrecking our score, we remain good-natured and helpful. We take sections aside and work with them, encouraging and suggesting. We ignore wrong notes -- not because 'the composer can't even hear them', but because there are other clams to shell... or is that other corn to shuck? :)
Anyway, this is way off the topic of notation itself. Disaster stories are fun, at least in retrospect.
Just a minute, Dennis! You admit to ignoring wrong notes? You came down on me so hard for even suggesting that in the limited rehearsal time of my amateur band I had to let some things go.
You accused me of turning out chicken scratch (without ever hearing my band, I must state), yet you blithely admit that you do the same thing?
And in a tone of voice as to suggest it is a GOOD THING to do sometimes?
You're not one of these "If I do it, it's okay, but if YOU do it you're a tasteless yahoo who doesn't care" kind of people are you?
