On the other hand, who will play the part? A trumpet player! So do a
trumpet player a favor and write
Here is an odd question that came across my desk the other day, for which I
would like to tap the collective wisdom of the group:
Does anyone know if the bugle has a home in proper score order? If so,
where does it go? And is this different for orchestra and concert band?
My instinct is to thin

My reasons are mostly practical. 1) The F-transposed parts of std. rep.,
at least from Kalmus, contain many errors. 2) Because F-transposed parts
are not always available even at the high school youth symphony level,
it is a good idea to get used to

Dear experts,
Tell me if I have this straight: When a horn part moves into the bass
clef these days, the transposition remains the same as it is in
treble clef, sounding down a fifth. However, some time in the past
(when?), the transposition was up a fourth. The horn is one of the
few (only?)

okay, i am jumping in late in the game here and may have missed this, but
FWIW, looking at El Salon Mexico the other day, i noticed the horn parts in
bass clef...they sound up a fourth in that particular spot in the score.

Nope. The F horn parts are written out for horn in F, but the D horn

Martin,
Maybe I am just very simple, but If the trumpets are in C, why should't
the horns be? Do you have a score or just parts? If you have a score, it
must be a non-transposing ons.
A while ago I edited an 1745 oratorio, which had horns in the bass clef,
notated non-transposing.
