Hello all,
One of my students posed a question to me today that I had never considered with Finale. How does one handle an instrument double. The example he had involved an arrangement that has a sax part that keeps changing between Soprano, Tenor and Alto. How does he put an instrument change in a Finale score?
[My suggestion was to create separate parts for the instruments in the score and then assemble a part after extraction, but that seems somewhat painful]


Any interesting suggestions?

I just use Staff Styles. A lot of the parts I write double, and that always works just fine.


Procedure: Make sure you have all of the instruments you'll be using in the piece included when you do the Set-Up.
Write the Piece.
Create Expressions: "Change to Trumpet" or "Change to Trombone" or whatever, and plug them in as necessary


This always works for me.

Luck!
