     I've seen it both ways, but repeating accidentals seems to be commoner than
not when an 8va sign either begins or ends.  I would myself always, absolutely
always, repeat the accidentals.
     That may not mean much, though - another thing I always do, but many don't
like doing now, is that, when I change from a flat key signature to a sharp one
or vice-versa, I always include cancelling naturals for the old signature.

                         Regards,
                          Michael Edwards.


P.S.
     Oops - I've just noticed I accidentally sent my previous message to the old
address for this list (it is still in my list of addresses).  But it seemed to
get through anyway.
