so, since there are 2 to a stand in the string section, are they only half as likely to flub / miss an entry as the rest of the orchestra? :-)
actually the question is whether fewer cues in general are needed in string parts, not just because there are 2 to a desk but also because for tutti entries (this piece often doesn't use full sections) the section leaders can be expected to help the conductor in cuing entries?
i've also often seen musicians pointing with the bow, i'm assuming this is done just for orientation in long passages they don't play in? or is it to point out an entry the desk missed ;-) ?
