Re: [ARSCLIST] E or F?
Hi David,
If the B&M Dictionary is accurate as David says, then I'd guess it's in F. It would be unusual for an E piece to have so many themes starting on C.

Wonder if I should throw it on in F as well, and then advise which transfer to
use? It's for full symphony orchestra, and pitching the disc to F actually
means going up close to 3%. Playing it in E means starting down 2.4% and it
picks up a bit as it plays so I'm only down 1.4% at the end.
