That's an interesting idea. I'd like to hear what that sounds like in practice. It might be worthwhile for me to see if I can find exemplar recordings - YouTube recordings of the C minor Serenade might be a good starting point.

Thanks.

Interestingly, I haven't found anyone either here or in another forum (Orchestra Librarians) where I posted about this who has even seen it anywhere else, much less knows for certain what it is. One friend on the OLI forum suggested finding a copy or facsimile of the original edition of the Klose method (which was probably first published in the mid-1840s, I imagine) to see if he explains his markings in some sort of preface or glossary. There's nothing in my 1946 edition.
