I am not quite sure I follow you. Are you suggesting that first and second repeats are unusual in 18th and 19th century music? In that case, I am afraid you are wrong. They happen in about every larger piece many times, and in fact even in classical menuets you will find them in most of them. Mozart, Haydn, Beethoven, Bach, you name it.

It's silly to list examples, I am afraid, just open a score of a Haydn string quartet, and you will find them. They are everywhere.

Perhaps I misunderstood you.

And don't we know it....*still awaiting the complete edition of the Trent Codices*...



And we were talking about modern practice of publishing music, but not necessarily of contemporary music.


That's true....my point (the context of which has been lost!) was how can one talk of a 'standard' system for such repeats in pre-1900 music, when they're rare enough to be considered non-standard?
