Who formatted this??

Ok it’s a decent arrangement for easy violin, but each solo fits on two pages. So instead of printing them each on one side of a folded larger sheet, they printed it so that each piece begins at the fold (like the first page of a book) so no matter which one you’re playing you have to turn a page. And it didn’t save them any paper doing it this way. We all like to joke that music printers have it in for us on page turns but this one really just doesn’t make sense. It’s not going to make it unusable obviously but it would be nice if the people who publish music thought about these things when formatting music.
