Elijah, Reduced Orchestration, slightly off topic!

Post by AndyCat »

Hi all,

I'm wondering if any of you here know if the reduced orchestration of Mendelsohn's Elijah has a Bass or a Tenor trombone? It's only one part, and I've been asked to do it but will run a mile if it's tenor!

Thanks,

Andy Cattanach.

Run for the hills - it's tenor
Always make a good sound; audiences will forget if you miss a note but making a good sound will get you the next job.
