Case contract

Input [instrument, pitch, direction]. Each instrument has a stipulated sounding offset in semitones (concert = written + offset): Bb clarinet -2, A clarinet -3, F horn -7, Eb alto sax -9, Bb tenor sax -14, Eb baritone sax -21, guitar -12, piccolo +12, D trumpet +2, flute 0. direction to_concert adds the offset, to_written subtracts it. pitch and result must be MIDI 0..127; otherwise, or for unknown instrument or direction, return None.

Why this case matters

Score and part generators convert between written and sounding pitch for every transposing instrument.
