The symbol that's above the first violin that looks like a double
dagger mark (for a lack of a better word) has me befuddled. Can anyone
offer suggestions on how that would be played? The piece is from
Darmstadt Germany, around 1740 and is by Christoph Graupner.

My first reaction is that it represents some sort of ornament, but nothing similar is in the Table of Ornaments in New Grove 1. I still think it represents an ornament, but can't suggest which one it might be.
