Sep 2, 2019 at 7:05 comment added Kilian Foth In principle, yes - just be aware that having more than 8 desks of any instrument group is very rare to begin with. Composers usually try to accommodate both small and large ensembles to increase their chances of getting performed. That's why they write such open-ended instructions.
Sep 2, 2019 at 6:42 comment added Walter @KilianFoth How would that translate to the above example, for instance? “div. (8 desks / others)”?
Sep 2, 2019 at 6:30 comment added Kilian Foth Orchestral strings are usually arranged by desks (two players sharing a music stand), so you find instructions like "3 soli / altri" or "2 desks / others".
