can anyone tell me if the banjo is written transposed?
According to my book (p. 337) the banjo sounds an octave below the
written pitch regardless of tuning, number of strings etc. This is
important for the not-infrequent occasions where the instrument is used
in classical music--works by Thomson, Crumb, etc.
