Perhaps you should just "suck it up" and do it anyway....

Is it the Schubert or the Bach-Gounod? The Schubert does not have that big of a spread but the B/G does have that arpeggio at the end which, if played down the octave, will have you at Ab below the staff.Get's you coming or going. Good luck.

You could transpose it down a tritone ... that'd be more of a challenge! :twisted:

And it would sound fantastic with the piano accompaniment at normal pitch! DO IT!
