I have the plus signs too. I was going to say exactly what Martin said about the sharp thing but that doesn't make sense in this case. I thinkI have asked someone what those were actually and didn't get a response.

This is just a stupid guess but maybe it has something to do with reversing the dynamics on the repeat? Or maybe it was some kind of shorthand they were going to use and then decided not to use it but missed deleting it out of this one excersise.

I dont know.

Tom

However I would be surprised if this is the reason here. The other use of a + I have met in baroque works is an indication that a trill or mordent is appropriate, but this doesn't seem to apply either. Is there no foreword that explains this one? I'd rather like to know myself what it means.
