Dear List,
I'm trying to add divisions to La Rossignol and I appended the fruits of
my labor. (Pls widen your window if the modified version wraps around.)
I'm having problems with measure 3: for the 4th and 6th note I can (or
maybe not ?) choose an e of an e-flat, which gives me four combinations to
choose from. (Or five if you count not doing anything at all.) How do I
make the choice? How do I know that what sounds right to me would have
sounded right to Renaissance ears? Do the rules of hexachord mutations
reduce the number of "valid" choices?
Thanks,
Peter
