Also, just to make sure you know, unless your player asks for something else it should be notated in treble clef at concert pitch (not transposed) in the octave from the F above middle C to the F two octaves higher (F1-F3 Helmholtz notation). That way a Celtic flutist can read from the same part. Alto players reading from vocal notation read from notation an octave lower and play it up an octave, but solo parts are almost always notated at pitch.

Would the standard glissando mark be used for this? I've seen the indication bend in some music which wants this type of thing, but this was jazzy type stuff, not Celtic. Thanks, Lawrence... I bet you're right about the gliss. Mark for the slides. So where you've seen the bend indication - is it just the word bend itself, or is there a symbol for this? Thanks again, everyone!

Re: [Finale] Notation for Recorder
Hi Jacki, It just said "bend" in italics. I think sometimes there was a diagonal line too . I must admit I've not seen it very often as I tend to stay away from jazz in case it makes me ill. :-) All the best, Lawrence "þaes ofereode - þisses swa maeg"http://lawrenceyates.co.uk ___ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale

[Finale] Notation for Recorder
Hi, Everyone - I have another question about notating for alto recorder! Does anyone know how you notate those slides they do - like when they hit a low note and kind of float up to a higher note?
