Morning reading…

… at the trough…

The Minx set off for her 10.00 show c. 09.00.

Here, into e-fury mode. Addressing the non-industry dissension and disputation.

14.51 A visit to T at the end of her first show, c. 12.45. The principals in the cast were allotted a Q&A with schoolchildren, a valuable contribution to the young community. It was scheduled during the short break between two performances.

In response to an enquiry from a Buddy, introduced to two forms of the First Secondary Exercise in Lunlunta recently (18-24october2012)…

the quick answer is - yes.
the longer answer...

The First Secondary Exercise:
two notes ascending:
12 13 14 23 24 34
two notes descending:
43 42 41 32 31 21

the other fingerings are extrapolations and variations on those extrapolations.

eg extrapolation 1:
three notes ascending:
121 232 343
three notes descending:
434 323 212

variation 1 on extrapolation 1:
three notes ascending:
121 232 343 232
three notes descending:
434 323 212 323

the variations proliferate the more time i spend with them.
