RE: slurs and ties

[Erik Appeldoorn]

David,

If the composer has written them it is not to me to leave them out. Sensical
or not-so-sensical.

As I'm restoring an old manuscript I feel I'm bound to what I find. It is
difficult enough to recreate the score with only parts in different
handwriting available.

But I have to agree on the tricky part. All the extra's I need to recreate
the score makes my scores unyealding and time-consuming to create.
