Nice challenge! I only did measure 3 (plus partial of measure 2). It is far from perfect (appoggiatura subdivided beam is a bit tricky but unfortunately the beam slope is not good), but it should give you an idea how to (try to) do it. Some fingerings need some tweaking, I have done some but some still need work. Cheers, Xavier -- Xavier Scheuer <x.sche...@gmail.com>
