Re: Hemiola indication

[Peter Toye]

Thanks both. I'd not thought of it as "ancient" notation - its only Purcell! And I use it for Handel as well. "Early", maybe.

It doesn't work too well (as the 2.16 doc says), and there's definitely a problem where there's a 4-beat note (tied over the 3-beat bar) in the relevant voice. Can't work out how to do that one.


Best regards,

Peter
