Dear Mathias, Thank you for the file. Here is my version, very similar to yours except bar 19 which I consider correct in the manuscript and bar 11 which I read differently from you. This makes a total of 3 "mistakes" which is really few for a manuscript piece of this type ! A very beautiful piece anyway !
All the best, Jean-Marie -------------- >Dear Jean-Marie, >Let me be the first, hoping that your PC opens Fronimo files. >Mathias > > > >-----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- >Von: Jean-Marie Poirier [mailto:[email protected]] >Gesendet: Mittwoch, 7.
