In a message dated 6/8/02 3:05:50 PM Central Daylight Time, ... Siggy, This is a good point. A 6/8 time signature has two strong beats per measure just as 4/2,...
Thanks, The fugue tempo is critical for a 2 in-the-bar 6/8. I can take the tempo to quaver = 190 but will it take it to the gigue tempo? Very 'detache'...
