Ok, I looked at your link. It's definitely not a March, being in 3/8. One could consider it a reference to a "Ländler", but the whole thing is a Sonata with variations, and the "alla Austriaca" is close to the end. While musically quite different, _structurally_ I cannot imagine this sonata to be _anything_ but a joke on KV331. Really, check out the score on all of KV331 and compare with the whole stuff from Beethoven. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
