Somewhere Duet

[JaneLewis]

Hi Ralph

I have downloaded your revised file .... it sounds beautiful. I love the lower tones and aspire to being able to play more! The double alto recorder duet appeals greatly - I hope that my daughter and I will eventually be able to play these duets together as Alto I and Alto II. Or maybe sing them. It is nice to have the tune line written for the Alto.

I will need to enlist my daughters help again because I have only learnt 5 notes on my recorder so far .... I'm a real beginner! Also, although I learnt the violin to grade 5 at school (many decades ago), I have had no formal music training.

Watching the file play through has now taught me a bit about reading music .... D.C. al Coda and the symbol were a bit of a mystery to me and I have had trouble with this in the choir I sing with. Thanks for the further learning you are enabling. I am very new to using Notation and on a steep learning curve - but it's fun and exciting.

I'm off to bed now and possibly looking after a sick grandson tomorrow while my daughter teaches music in school.

Wishing you well.

Jane
