I talked with a rep at MakeMusic yesterday about the absence of

jazz GPO package. Can this be a blessing in disguise?
Oh, definitely for me! I relish the thought of having to pay another
$150 or so to get the sounds of an instrument which it is unthinkable
to leave out of a quite large share of the composition/engraving
field, namely Concert Band, to say nothing about Jazz Band or Marching
Band.
Saxophones are in the SoundFont. Just not the included GPO lite. I'm
sure they would have liked to included them, but GPO Jazz/Big Band is
not available yet.
Also, the list of GPO instruments included in Fin2k6 is far more
comprehensive than the instruments Sibelius provides, period.
