Hi all,
just thought I’d let you know that as of today my site has moved to a new provider with web address: http://www.john-devitt.com The Harold McNair transcriptions and MIDI files are still available as free downloads, with the last addition being a transcription of his “The Cottage”. Hope you find these useful for your jazz flute study.
all the best,
John Devitt

If you don’t have a sequencer or notation program which can print out the solo part you can download the accompanying PDF files and print them out. The files are strictly for private study and may not be used for commercial purposes. On my homepage just scroll down to the MIDI files area. Hope you enjoy,and, of course, feedback is welcome.
Regards,

I play in pit orchestras sometimes. And this article was interesting. It’s very true that orchestra sizes seem to be diminishing. Last couple of shows I’ve done have been “abridged” versions, where we have 2-3 reeds (out of 5), 1-2 strings, 2-3 brass, and rhythmn section. Most of the other stuff, if it’s being covered (usually doesn’t get covered), is done with Synths….
Regardless, the author makes some valid points about sound quality.
