  1. Thank you. There are apparently musicians out there who really want to see this music. Have met several of them who have encouraged me to create this project and see it through. Please mention this site to anyone you know who might be interested in this music, battles or drawings. Thanks again.

  2. Yes! I really do want to see this music. I’m looking forward to trying out the tunes. I’m always interested to know what people were hearing 200 years ago.
