Rocky Your score has given me the idea to try your method, but making a font with no noteheads for quarter note, eighth, etc., but to keep the half and whole as they are. Mass Mover = Utilities = Change = Noteheads = Selected Notehead Here you can change black notehead to no notehead

Martyn, Yes, I'm familiar with the previous discussion. Far from being modern in my approach to this music, it needs to be approached on its own terms. Abrupt leaps of a major or minor seventh in an otherwise scalar passage are fine for Stravinsky. In baroque music they are not -
