Very clever, Johan! I don't think I would have come up with such a neat solution. I AM a harpsichordist, and in fact one who has played a whole lot of continuo. I've never seen this notation. I question whether it means anything more than 5- . Is it in a modern edition or a facsimile? Engraving or handwritten manuscript? Who is the composer? Could you possibly scan the spot where it occurs (including the other parts and the previous and following measures) and email it privately? --Don Simons _______________________________________________ TeX-music mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://sunsite.dk/mailman/listinfo/tex-music
