An extremely bad way if you ask me. Don't do that if at all avoidable.

Thinking about this in more detail, I would add that page turns have to
be at different places in chamber music and orchestral music.
Eg, in a string quartet it is possible to have a page turn during a GP
(although it does depend on the GP). It is also possible to have a page
turn during a
At least in the studio/B'way world, three-page flat parts (without a
page turn) are perfectly acceptable, so long as fits on a standard
music stand. (It's okay if the left and right edges hang off the edge
of the stand, so long as the part is stable.)
If a flat three-page part isn't an

be the optimal way to do it).

Presumably because the judgement was made that in that particular

And that is where your control ends. The final decisions will be
reached by the conductor, concertmaster and/or section leaders, so
you MUST leave them with no other choice in the matter if you can't
accept the tradeoff. And the interesting thing (and don't ANYBODY

Yes, Johannes, I was thinking of living composers. If the composer is
dead and buried he/she will not be in a position to contribute to the
discussion.
I would not contemplate editing the work of a dead composer in order
to make page turns.

many modern parts?
