Just like the old days.

Director: "There's something wrong at the end. Let's take the last four bars."

2nd Trombone: "Could you back it up to letter 'M' so we can try those triplets again?"

1st Tenor: "How about that unison section at 'G'?"

Lead Trumpet: "Man, we gotta nail that double-forte line at 'C.'"

Director: "Take it from the top."
