Using the bows, i.e. no longer plucking (the plucking began at "pizz").

Again a ridiculously wrong answer from a would-be expert. Embarrassing.

You know, I am becoming seriously concerned at what goes on in this
newsgroup. I've only just started looking in on these places (most of my
internet time is spent on other, more fruitful and lasting pursuits), and
what I am seeing is a whole crowd of newbies and other under-informed people
being comprehensively misled by self-styled experts who lack an adequate
grasp of the matter they so 'helpfully' deal with. It's really quite
shocking.


I am beginning to think that I ought to leave my other web pursuits alone
for a few weeks, valuable though these are, and use my limited free time in
cleaning up a group like this one. It seems that someone with a bit of
genuine knowledge and authority (including compositional experience) would
be useful round here.

Silly, strings are "cordi". "Archi" are bows. "Archi" does not include harps.

And so you slither and slime your way around your ridiculously wrong answer; whereas I simply pulled a Russian edition of a Russian work off my shelf and found that, as I had correctly recalled, it had 'Violini I', 'Violini II', 'Viole', 'Violoncelli' and 'Contrabassi' on page 1 -- and simply 'Archi', written alongside the central, viola stave, thereafter. That's the difference between you and me, 'Dr' Fields: I am a composer; you just pose as one. I know what I'm talking about; you are just a wannabe. And while I spend my limited internet time writing wikipedia articles which allow tens of thousands of people to get impregnably accurate information, you spend your time just muddying the water as you play the 'big fish' in a small newsgroup. Take a look at wikipedia sometime: it's time you learned something about music.



So you've got compositional experience--more than last time you posted here as "Mary-Margaret Petit", Mr Newberry? It's been a while, maybe you've made some progress. Show me where I can hear a bit. I'll even go first, there's two MP3's right on my home page.

I've never heard of this 'Mary-Margaret' before. Are you sure you're not just inventing imaginary facts again? As for your 'MP3's, I think it's fair to say that anyone who knows your works as well as mine will realise that mine are the ones deserving of attention; so I will do the same as them, thank you very much. If you want to know what I've done, look up me and my stuff on ... wikipedia: it's where one goes to find out about things that matter.
