Oh, didn't I say that I do only the difference when it comes to copy written partitions to abc format ? I don't want to "betray" the original partition, or at least to loose the fewer informations so I write them. But when I play I don't bother longer with slurs or ties... :) For example in some partitions there is no slurs noted but the notes are obviously legato (especially on fiddle), but most of the time I don't read if there is slurs, one can feel is they are needed or not. And last but not least, it's faster to slur more than 2 notes than to tie them : I'd never think to write for example : c2-B-B-| G-B-F-B | instead of (c2B B | G B F B) | ___________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? -- Une adresse @yahoo.fr gratuite et en français !
