ABSTRACT
The designer focuses on the speakers and makes adjustments to the system. The system drawings and paperwork are a good jumping-off point, but it is very likely that speakers will need to be adjusted once the musicians see them in the space. The design team will also coordinate with the music department on the pit layout and instrumentation, as well as plan for special needs in the pit. The music department consists of several people the composer, the orchestrator, the arranger, the copyist, the music supervisor, the conductor, and the music contractor. The arranger deals with the vocal arrangements. The copyist documents all of the music and prints it out for the musicians. The music supervisor is basically the director for the musicians. The orchestrator's job on a revival is to maintain the intent of the original orchestration while bringing a new point of view to it. The arranger deals with the vocal arrangements.
