I'd like to second that, it's what I learned decades ago, iirc ;) See also the attached png from BWV 121 Sorry for the bad resolution. (Although the right Hand is not Bach ofcourse.) The score can be downloaded at http://imslp.org/wiki/Christum_wir_sollen_loben_schon,_BWV_121_%28Bach,_Johann_Sebastian%29 Cheers, Harm
