���� Roger's task was to split the final score into parts for each instrument. This involved preparing and proofreading over 4,000 pages of parts.
���� The score contains all of the instruments on a single page. A part will contain only those notes which a specific instrument plays. These parts must be formatted to a unique style for each instrument. If this process is done properly it can save hours of recording time.


���� The key is to prepare parts that the musicians can read at sight and to make every effort to have the parts free of mistakes. Mistakes can be costly and use a great deal of recording time.
���� The Basket parts were the cleanest of any score recorded by The Kiraly Music Network in its six years of operation according to the conductor and the producer.�

��� Roger Logan studied piano and horn in his hometown of Moscow, Idaho. He majored in music at the University of Idaho and joined the Spokane Symphony Orchestra in his junior year.

He performs and records regularly with the Solstice Wind Quintet, Cathedral Brass, Clarion, the Spokane Symphony Brass Ensemble, the Sitelo Trio, and on the Connoisseur Concerts and Allegro Chamber Music Series. As a member of the historic Spokane Falls Brass Band from 1981-1999, he has made a number of recordings, has appeared in concert and at major Ragtime festivals throughout the west and mid-west, and has appeared on the nationally syndicated public radio program "A Prairie Home Companion" with Garrison Keilor. His work in the recording studio has been heard nationally on CNN, TBS, NBC, ABC, Warner Brothers, and many other networks.
