Got a question for the collective wisdom. When describing an instrument, one of the common points of distinction is nominal pitch, one speaks of an alto recorder in G, a clarinet in C, or a Lute in G for example.
I can see reason for a nominal pitch to involve one sharp or one flat (clarinet and many brass instruments are in Bb and Eb) but can anyone think of a reason to consider an instrument to be in, oh, say, Bbb ? -- Dana Emery To get on or off this list see list information at http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~wbc/lute-admin/index.html
