Actually these days I find that for notational information as well as range information and playing techniques, Andrew Stiller's Handbook of Instrumentation to be much better than any books on orchestration, which seem to discuss which instruments work well together and which don't rather than discussing the technical details such as whether an instrument is notated with an octave displacement or not. Stiller's book is my go-to reference when I need specific information about an instrument. -- David H.
