Hello, all.
Andrew Stiller's instrumentation book says 2% of piccolos have an
extended low range of c# and c-nat. If the player has an instrument with
an extension, I would like to write as low as c#, but of course I will
have to provide ossias that don't go below d.
My question is, in the intervening ~25 years since Stiller wrote his
book, has the percentage changed? Is it one particular maker that
provides the extension? Does it affect the playing characteristics or
the sound?
Any information about piccolo extensions is welcome.
