Anthony Wilson

Does anyone know where I can reach Anthony Wilson? I would like to do an arrangement of one of his works and would like his permission and advice.

Also on a side note: When you write a multi-part score that has different instruments, how can you identify the instruments in your score. When you print it out how do you get your score to indentify each staff as Trumpet, Tuba, Trombone etc.....

Thanks

Last I wrote to him he was still at the address as posted on the scriptorium, here's one instance:

File --> Page Setup --> Options --> Staff Labels gives you several choices.

To identify the instruments in the score, give the staff an appropriate name (e.g. Flute I/II etc.) in the Staff Properties: General Tab.

Then go to the Options tab on the page set up dialogue and select the appropriate Staff labelling option - probably "first system". This will add your specified staff name alongside the start of each stave.

When extracting parts from a score, I find it useful to insert the instrument name as a text expression at the start of each stave at a staff position of 20 or so and with the visibility set to "top staff only". This puts the instrument name in the top left corner of the first page (below the title).
