Thanks a lot Chris :)
Does any BarFly users happen to have a suitable stress program (might be
difficult with the alternating 6/4-3/2 bars...)

BarFly's stress programming assumes that all bars are the same, so it

Actually, I have heard people say things like "Let's play it in two

Well, I'm equivocal. I thought part of the criticism of classically trained
players was that they lumped modes into the major/minor system and hence
missed the character that the mode gave t

transcriptions and their key assignments are generally
correct
