I suggested avoiding subsubsections such as in current Vocal music.
Graham is reluctant to make more chapters (still can't forget about
his "four letters" answer in a private mail :)
Ok, come on, it was hilarious! But we really need to explain this.
John and Valentin were dithering about Vocal music: "should we leave it
in instrument-specific, or make it a new chapter... but it's too short
to be a chapter by itself... what to do, what to do...?"
My response:
"hmm, yeah... vocal music is tricky. If only we had a dedicated chapter
for putting words on the page... especially if we had a new, dedicated
chapter, that was much shorter than the other chapters... we could give
that chapter a nice short name, like "word", or maybe something else
with four letters..."
Poor Valentin thought I was swearing at him*. I, of course, was
referring to the new chapter "Text".
* in English, most swearwords have four letters; the phrase "four-letter
words" generally** refers to swearwords.
** one of my conductors make jokes about this: "no, no! You're playing
loud, and `loud' is a four-letter word. Think `heroic' or `strong'
instead! No four-letter words in this orchestra!"
Cheers,
- Graham
