Help with reduction

• Feb 5, 2019 - 19:52

Good evening to all of you,

I'm currently editing (reducing) Arvo Pärt's "De profundis", but I'm having trouble with the percussion part. The piece features both pitched and unpitched percussion, and organ, so I'm using a double piano staff for the reduction. I was wondering if, by any means, it's possible to write the unpitched percussion part in the piano staff as well, like you would type for a drum set (I really don't want to add a new staff just for unpitched percussion).

Thank you in advance for your help.

I would recommend adding the unpitched percussion staff but setting "Hide when empty" to "Always" in Staff Properties. other than that, you could add notes to the piano part at whatever pitches you like then change the noteheads manually.
