A number of Amoris collection scores transferred from WIMA are scored for a special ensemble type, Oboe Consort instigated by Jennifer Paull, founder of the Amoris collection. The primary instruments are Oboe, Oboe d'amore, English horn and Bass oboe. Alternative instruments for the Oboe d'amore and Bass oboe are Oboe and Bassoon resp.

However, in the instrumentation indications of these scores the Oboe d'amore and Bass oboe are absent:

Genre Categories Pieces; For 2 oboes, English horn, bassoon; Scores featuring the oboe; Scores featuring the bassoon; Scores featuring the English horn; For 4 players

Carr, Waiheke Island
Harris, Divertissement in Seven Movements
Harris, A Consort of Carols
Salzedo, Bailables
Strutt, Suite of English Folk Songs (not yet transferred from WIMA)

Could I ask the favor of having the categorization of these scores reviewed such that the 2 now missing instruments become reflected?

2 of the Oboe Consort pieces involve a Musette as an alternative instrument for the primary upper part instrument, Oboe:

Salzedo, Bailables
Strutt, Suite of English Folk Songs (not yet transferred from WIMA)

A search on the term 'oboe consort' turns up three works:

• Divertissement in Seven Movements (Harris, Ian Keith)
• A Consort of Carols (Harris, Ian Keith)
• Bailables (Salzedo, Leonard)

Could you take a look and make sure these are now correctly categorized, and also let us know if there are any more which don't appear in this list? Thanks.

Thanks for that, and the works should now all be shown in their correct categories.
