Thanks for your kind words!

I have one question: in measure 36 (lower staff), there are two eight
notes followed by a half-note chord.  One eight note is connected with
the chord using a tie, and the other one using a slur.  Shouldn't both
use ties?  I don't see any rearticulation in the tablature.

cheers,
