Hi Aaron,
How about a mark at the beginning, and then a parenthetical reminder
on each page. It seems cluttered to imagine the smartshape over the
whole passage. Bill Duncan has a smart shape with "reminder" inserts
on each system, but that, too, seems like overkill to me.
Just some thoughts.

Hi all,
I'm working with a piece in which the piano has a 3.5 bar phrase
repeated for 100 bars or so, and the whole 100 bars are marked 8va.
Rather than stretching an 8va smartshape out for that entire
length, what do you think about just putting '8va sempre' at the
beginning and then 'loco' when the passage is over? Or is there
some other standard way of indicating a really long 8va passage?
I understand that this could lead to confusion if rehearsal started
in the middle of the passage, but since the parts are for my use
only this might be a chance I'm willing to take.
Thanks,
Aaron.
