Re: help notes and rests

If anyone is going to write out notes that short (and let's hope they don't), the easiest thing to do is halve the note values and double the tempo to make things more legible - it'll still sound the same, but much easier to comprehend.

I know with Baroque adagios and largos the ornamentation is usually written out in modern editions rather than left to the player, but seeing the page with more ink than paper showing is daunting enough.

Mathematics aren't my forte, and trying to subdivide beats into fractions is a challenge for me.
