I have to typeset in PMX a figured bass sonata by Pasquini for two
harpsichords, that requires two figured bass lines. Is there a way to
put the figures not only in the lowest voice but in the upper too?
When I saw the subject line I immediately thought about Pasquini and those
strange pieces. Are there any other works with two parallel lines of figured
bass? Sometime in the last decade I set out to typeset some of them, and I
made a special version of PMX to do it. I did get the process working but
never got very far with the typesetting. I can't think of any good way to do
it in the current PMX. If you have some patience, I'll try to find the old
special version and integrate the capability into modern PMX. It'll be a
good spare-time project for my long-awaited vacation starting this Thursday,
most of which I'll spend playing harpsichord and visiting old friends at the
International Baroque Institute at Longy in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Then
when you finish the typesetting, we can get together and play them :-)
