Ensemble Etiquette & Rehearsal Words

What is expected in a rehearsal room before, during and while playing in a section, plus the words you'll hear used to run it.

What's inside

• What is expected before you sit down, while the music runs, and when playing in a section
• A glossary of words you'll hear in the room — from letter B, tutti, divisi, cut-off, subito, and more
• Applause and platform manners, and how to look after a borrowed part
• What a composer should do differently in the room — speaking through the conductor, not to a player
