You remember those days where the line, “Look What Happens, Nightmare Time,” was just an earwormy tune courtesy of Mariah’s amazing vocals during Not Your Seed in The Guy Who Didn’t Like Musicals?

Now it has its own theme song and we are haunted by listening to the instrumental motif.

okay i know no-one follows me for this but i tried scrolling past and man, i can't just leave this be

first of all: notice the colour coding in the first image. it's split like that for a reason: purple is percussion, obviously, green is brass, yellow is woodwind, and red is strings. the important thing to note is that there aren't any breaks in colour - that's because as players, you need to be with your section.

with the solution below, imagine you're a trombone player. if you're trying to play with the other trombone as one (as you should be,) you have a whole section of tubas obscuring your peripheral vision. you can't see or communicate with the people playing the same part as you at all.

now, lets look at the woodwinds - they're completely bisected by the violas. fucking violas. you know what high woodwind can gain from seeing the violas next to them? not much! at least, not much compared to having other woodwinds next to them.

finally, the conductor. while not having changed positions in this solution, the conductor's job has become three times as difficult. imagine trying to signal the trumpets to decrescendo at bar 28 and they're split into two sections directly opposite one another. it's extremely unclear which section you're even trying to direct. imagine trying to get through a rehearsal where you're a french horn trying to figure out what the fuck the 2nd horn part is doing from across the room.

this would absolutely be a good layout from a listener's point of view, but for a player or conductor... it ain't gonna work.

i do love the armed turrets though. keep the armed turrets.

Hey can someone help me go back and time and ask who's fucking bright idea was it to stick all the bass and other low register instruments completely on the right fucking side of the theater with zero compensation on the other? RIP to the people on the left side I guess, fucking ridiculous here please enjoy my proposed solution

FUCK YEAH WAY BETTER
