I’ve had a lesson on instrument transposition and I FINALLY UNDERSTAND

The Feeling™

(also, I kinda never thought that alto flute would transpose, which in hindsight was a thing to suspect)

me: doesn’t wanna do home work

me: transposes an entire song by ear

me: 🤷‍♀️

hi I'm a string player who has had trouble understanding transposing and to cope i made a shitty meme

Does anyone know why there are even transposing instruments? Can’t an E-flat just be an E-flat?

BD: Play a concert D flat scale The trumpets, whispering to each other: that’s E flat right? he means E flat? three flats? it's E flat? E flat? E flat? E flat? E flat?

IIFFFFF I transposed Waving Through A Window from DEH to a female key, how high should I go?

In the current key (male octave not going up an octave lol no) the lowest note is A that is 2 below Middle C (A2) and the highest note is the Bb above Middle C (Bb4). 

I was thinking of bringing it up so that the low note is D below middle C and the high note would be the Eb above middle C. I don’t wanna bring it up REALLY far that it doesn’t even sound the same but that A2 is just impossible for women (I’m considered CRAZY ALTO when I can sing a C3). But pulling it up an octave is just NOT GONNA HAPPEN with those high notes. Not because I (and a TON of women) can’t sing a Bb5... its just like... why? fuck that. 

I feel like that works well but idk. I have to put all the notes into my program before I can even start transposing it anyways so we have TIME
