After shot, went to the library at Cornell, borrowed two sets of string quartet parts for possible LilyPond transfering over the next few months *g*
(an early work by composer/teacher/theorist Salomon Jadassohn (1831-1902), his op. 10 in C minor ... a nearly-contemporary piano trio in F's first movement was converted by me to MIDI some years back, I liked it; also a later work, but before the composer's death in 1910, by a Samuel deLange, his 3rd quartet in G minor; about whom and about which- except from scanning the score- I know nothing!)
Also, at the library, listened to organ works by Wilhelm Friedemann Bach (1710-1784), harpsichord works by Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach (1714-1788 - including a long fantasia written a couple of years after Mozart's in C minor... I wonder if CPE knew it? Mozart knew some of _his_ music but was more influenced himself by JS Bach's youngest son (CPE's youngest brother), Johann Christian Bach...) and finally two cantatas (no. 105 and one other) by JS Bach himself, which as almost always with his 200-plus surviving cantatas, I found enjoyable, striking, remarkable, etc. (again, yes, I'm an atheist and Bach had every intention of converting through music if he possibly could, and no one had a better chance of it it seems to me)
