steve: thank you for your thots
i wanted to give you a little more information

the group is Very small- about 20 people. the director welcomes anyone to the rehearsals even when they cannot make the concert so that we can try and get as many parts covered as possible. i asked him before hand if this was ok and it was not a problem to him at all. But, i know all to well how the balance can be thrown off when suddenly things change the night of the concert becuz he brings in people from his other band on concert night to fill in the gaps. its hard to play next to someone you havent played with all semester.

unfortunately the band is too small to drown anything out

the conductor had stopped to go over the difficult parts with the trumpets, the flutes and the saxes ....he does this often to help us along and there is some waiting involved for all of us. and sice he had just stopped to go over the sax parts i didnt think it was inappropriate to ask for help with our section. but perhaps a section get-together might be a better choice and i will mention it to everybody next rehearsal.
