Currently this article says, "If any soloists or a choir are called for, their parts are usually printed between the percussion/keyboards and the strings in the score. In shorthand however, they are usually omitted." I think it would be more accurate to say, "If any soloists or a choir are called for, their parts are usually printed between the percussion/keyboards and the strings in the score. In shorthand, soloists are usually omitted." Usually a choir would not be omitted, but instrumental solos played by members of the orchestra would be. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.99.141.58 (talk) 17:08, 17 February 2010 (UTC)Reply
