Hi David,
Yes, hearing nothing solves the problem of hearing the wrong note, but it's
sometimes useful to be able to hear the correct note as it's being entered.
Finale's way of doing it just seems crazy and unhelpful to me.

A few years back I was a ringer in a viola section. The work being
rehearsed was Rimsky-Korsakov's Russian Easter Overture. The trombone
section was absent. The conductor asked if anyone had trombone cues to play
during the famous chant section. The cues were in the viola part. I was the

I'd recommend the treble clef that's an octave down -- ie, the same
one you'd use for the tenor section in a chorus. This is more
viola-friendly than getting stuck in the mindset of treble vs bass.

I have never notated for orchestra before and have a few

It is possible to enter everything into Finale at concert pitch (I
don't do this myself, so I don't remember where it resides, but there
is a toggle called Display score in concert pitch ). If you do
this, you write at the normal pitch, and then view the transposed
score, and

Yeah , I just tend to compose in Concert, then toggle to Transposed
score to see if I've kept the parts idiomatic for the instruments or
not. I find it a most helpful device.
