Well, except for viols. It's very disconcerting to have to read in multiple clefs, but a tenor viol player could very well be asked in a single concert to play in alto clef (the standard clef for the instrument), treble clef 8ba and treble clef at pitch. I'm adept at this *now*, but the first time I ever did it it gave me a headache. If you're doing parts for an edition like this that you would like playable on viols *please* provide alto clef parts for the inner voices, especially any part with a treble clef 8ba (but also low alto parts in regular treble clef). -- David W.
