I know how to fix it: rewrite it, and some of you send me their fixes when I last asked about Besard last year (was it?). But looking at the music, it begs the question: why? Why so many errors and/or poor writing, why bother to publish it? Is there a theory out there, someone? I am not very fa

It reminds me of the lute duets by P.P. Melii. In spite of the fact that Melii was a well-regarded professional musician, the duets seem completely garbled. One could recompose them, but it would be easier to start from scratch. Martin On 16/08/2011 16:14, David van Ooijen wrote: Once more

Dear David, While you're at it, do the trios as well! It's a back-burner project, mostly because with so many errors it's difficult to know where to start, and you wonder why not just compose it yourself. If I remember correctly Besard has trouble remembering which tuning he is writing in, e
