Yes, strina - can you clarify? Is the French violin clef the reason for your rant or merely another character within it which you can't find on your keyboard?  |

Ein süßer, heiliger Akkord von dir
Den Himmel beßrer Zeiten mir erschlossen,
Du holde Kunst, ich danke dir dafür!

The city is a process which always veers away from the form envisaged and desired, ... whose revenge upon its architects and planners undoes every dream of mastery. It is [also] one of the sites where Dasein is assigned the impossible task of putting right what can never be put right. - Rob Lapsley

It doesn't help to think bass clef? Er, no, probably not since if you were cool with bass clef you would have twigged to it already. You don't have the chance to rule another line at the bottom and get rid of the one on top? You don't have a violin in A? A violino d'amore? You can't scan it in to a music software program and fix it there? (If you have it in pdf, send it on down and I'll sort it out when I get a moment.) Damn. Play by ear? |

Oh, reminds me; you get over your sibelius transcribing crash of last week okay? |

Very mentally taxing day at work today. Really fed up and tired. Can't believe this time last week I was on holiday and relaxed and rested.

For those of you who don't know, French violin clef is a third off from treble clef. It uses the same "G" clef symbol, but it sits on the bottom line of the staff rather than the second line up. Thanks for all your suggestions, Ollie. I can cope with it in the slow movements, but the quicker ones are doing my head in. Whenever a phrase ends, my brain insists on seeing the next bit in treble clef. I may have to try ruling in another line - although it's a facsimile so that may be tricky (especially the getting-rid-of-top-line bit). And alas, I have no scanner, so I'm going to have to pass up your kind offer of assistance. This would probably have been more appropriate on the embarrassing confessions of ignorance thread. No, I'm not cool enough with bass clef to read all these fleet presto triplets...  But I think I will just have to persist. And playing by ear comes into it rather more than I'd like to say - I was inventing all sorts of things this afternoon! Grrr... |

Oh, reminds me; you get over your sibelius transcribing crash of last week okay? Emotionally you mean? Haven't used the program since... Some time soon I'll have to go down to the shop and get them to have a look at the memory chips. Too many things crash. But you can be sure that the next time I ask Sibelius to do something challenging, like copying a few bars from the exposition to save me typing them in in the recap, or finishing an 8th symphony, I'll be clicking on save first... strina, the offer holds should you find a scanner or a compliant colleague who has one.  |

I still don't have heating. I have it upstairs but not downstairs. So I am wrapped in a very feminine lacey doofer, topped with a chenille jumper, a dressing gown and a fleece down which I have stuffed a hot water bottle. The mind boggles at the gorgeousness of moi. My feet are encased in triple socks. My fingers are numb, and I am totally peed off, it being -3 here.

MabelJane,
Oh I think I have to go bare rubber rather than cute. Can I rephrase that?

Antheil, I too, in the absence of heating, am multi layered. Two pairs of socks (one pair thermal), PJs, two cardigans and two dressing gowns. Ah, what a delectably seductive pair we would make! I have not yet donned my mittens or hat with ear flaps .... |
