hey robert, thanks. the sudden change in the deadline was what put me off the most.
fair enough what you say, suppose that could make sense, but i also suppose they know well ahead of time what their vacation dates are... i doubt they change much year to year. i know the festival they play in doesn't change dates, so they should have been able to back-calculate. it is also the SWR orchestra, so even though it is "normal" for the kinds of things i work on, this group is quite used to it. so it should be considered a "normal" job for them, right? 8-) At 13:36 -0500 6/3/15, Robert Patterson wrote: >In my orchestra, the musicians have to have access to the parts at >least a month ahead of time.
