short names for instruments

[Sarah k Alawami]

Ok.. Here is the instrumentation for this final assignment. I do have some questions so bare with me. 

I have the templet almost complete except the choir voices are still in there. I guess I remove then and change the layout block to reflect that after I'm done with the music part itself

2 Flutes

2 Oboes

2 Clarinets

2 Bassoons

2 Horns

2 Trumpets

2 Tenor Trombones

0 Tuba

Timpani (2-3 drums)

Bass Drum & Cymbal (1 player)

Snare Drum

Violin I (8)

Violin 2 (6)

Viola (4)

Violoncello (4)

Contrabass (2)

Everything that is missing is the bassoon I think. and the trumpet is in the wrong place according to the score I think. if I remember  the way the score looks. 

Here is the templet I have so far.

so is this change going to be wary? I have not even started out writing notes.

and for the clarinet and those that transpose so I need to mentally think and write in the keys they are actually in? or can I write in g which is the key of this piece and the thing will transpose to the correct pitches for the horn and bassoon and clarinet? I did read about that part in the manual but that was a while ago lol!¬

Take care all and be blessed.
