Before I receive emails of complaint regarding some previous posts. I feel I must apologise for sending up how pompous English can be with the long winded terminology used in music notation. There are people who wouldn't have taken kindly to my, "One feels that one must stress, that it is in fact Original English, British through and through." I also must apologise for my poor attempt at trying to be funny by hinting that the long names are drop purely to simplify music for other Countries. although my comments were meant purely has harmless fun, I've since reread my emails and can see that they may of offended some people. I hope most of you took my comments in the jovial context in which they were meant. I would never intentionally upset anyone on this list. I see you not just as information sharing support, I think of you as friends. Would never intentionally offend my friends.
