Hi Simon, > when preparing a conductor's score that also includes a piano (as an > ensemble, not soloist) part, do you also include the pedalling information > for the piano?
IMO, a conductor’s score should contain essentially all the information in the performers’ parts, although possibly in a slightly different presentation (e.g., different clef, combined staves, shorthand, etc.) > How useful is that information for a conductor? Very! For example, let’s say the piano part says “senza ped.” and the conductor’s score has no marking — the conductor would likely assume the part would be played with pedal (ad lib.), and there might be confusion in rehearsal when the conductor hears no pedal. Hope that helps! Kieren.
