English Horn -> Oboe
So, for two of our concert band pieces, I'm supposed to switch from Oboe to English Horn. Unfortunately, our school doesn't have one. =P. So I have to transpose the music to Oboe. The thing is, it doesn't sound right because I've had to change some octave things because if I would have kept the transposed note, it'd be below the oboe's range.
Should I bring the rest of the English Horn solo up the octave to make it have the same up/down melody, or just keep it as is?
(Second American Rhapsody... i think, by Clare Grundman, and Africa: Ceremony and Spiritual... but i can't remember the composer with this one.)
