Stuart has now put my transcription of the second half of this piece on his web site. It can be seen at
http://www.tuningsinthirds.com/Baleto/Baleto-1copy.jpg I have done it using the " French" tuning which IMHO works perfectly well. The lack of a low octave string on the 5th course makes little difference as it is used in only a few places. However, notes on the 4th course will occasionally be doubled in the upper octave - above what one would assume is the original melody. I wouldn't see that as a problem myself... My programme for doing staff notation wont do elaborate part writing so you have to do some of it by hand but I think it is accurate apart from the first bar on the third stave - the C on the 4th quaver should be natural. The programme doesn't cancel accidentals in the key signature and I missed that one........
