Dear List,

I had a very interesting email from Jim Mitchell. He learned the
variations for sharps and flats in the tonic Sol-Fa system, but
wrote them down with slight variations to mine. It doesn't matter,
the point is the variations are there for sharps and flats and
they were indeed a product of the 19th century.

I, of course, got one of my "La's" mixed up with my "Law's" or was
it my Si's mixed up with my Saw's ? Never mind, TGIF. I was simply
trying to show the raised 6th and 7th in a melodic minor and the
flattening of it going down (La, Ti, Do - Do,Taw, Law). It matters
not, my wires get crossed when slightly brain fried and I am more
than slightly at present. I was very happy to hear that Jim learned
this in the USA.

I also had an amazing thought. Bach could sign his name in German
nomenclature. G. B(U)SH could too. That gives G (Sol), B (Si b=E9mol - =20=

Bb),
S =3D Es =3D Eb (Mi b=E9mol) and H =3D B natural.

Right. That is the most terrifying thought for the w/e. There exists
the possibility of a prelude and fugue upon this name.

Bear??? :-))

Best wishes to all,

Jennifer
