Ahhh. That didn't occur to me.  Sorry.  But why 
is that really a problem?  90% of singers 
couldn't read a viola part in alto clef, either, 
but *I* would want to see it where it belongs. 
Isn't that what the piano reduction is for in the 
first place?  It WILL be used for practice as the 
singer learns his or her part.
