Oh, thank you Mark Well, that would be great to see your version. Thank you for your offer!
For me it is all exercise in LP now and, anyway, my next version would be on the two-staff usual piano version. Nevertheless, as I may also publish the documents for learners of piano including practicing notes, I was thinking whether there is a standard way or any idea of indicating the different voices and fingering in the standard version -- so, I would use your version to add those details (if not existing of course). In the piano-two staves version I would color the different voices (notes heads, stems, rests, etc.) -- again for practice. Thanks again Roland Am Sa., 23.
