Hi all!
        Lately I've become rather heavily interested in serialism and pantonality (a la Second Viennese School). And as I write, I keep hearing my old composition prof in the back of my head saying that I should spell intervals as diatonically as possible (ie: write G-Bb instead of G-A#). What I need to know is:
1. Is this a good practice to follow? I mean, vocalists will need the recognizable intervals (minor third instead of augmented second), but does it matter so much for a pianist or an oboist, for example? I would think it easier to write all accidentals as either flats or sharps for sake of unity.

2. If this is a practice to be adopted, should it be followed between staves of a two-staff part (like piano)?
