Er, well, yes we can, seeing as I'm now here
and I'm not a dealer so would gain no pleasure
from deriving you off your fix.
Musical notation was fixed some time before
Bach as far as the twelve-semitone Octave is
concerned. Wikipedia has the following to
say about Bach...
"Johann Sebastian Bach (pronounced [ jo han z bastjan bax]) (21 March
1685 O.S. - 28 July 1750 N.S.) was a prolific German composer and
organist whose sacred and secular works for choir, orchestra and solo
instruments drew together the strands of the Baroque period and
brought it to its ultimate maturity. Although he introduced no new
forms, he enriched the prevailing German style with a robust
contrapuntal technique, a control of harmonic and motivic organisation
from the smallest to the largest scales, and the adaptation of rhythms
and textures from abroad, particularly Italy and France."
Ah, I see now. And of course he'd got all these
influences under his 15-y-o belt.
Otherwise not only was notation standardised but
we have instruments from the period on which it
can be played.
Anybody who thinks I'm going off on one: the letter
I drafted only a couple of days prior to this, to
me, glaringly suspicious post turning up here from
a totally faked address concerned...sheet music.
Which just leaves me with one question so far as
this "opinion exchange" goes:
If you're so into me as to cyber stalk me at home
why not come see me in the flesh?
