MMario fixed it, and it printed for me. Thanks for the effort, Ivan, I really appreciate it. Why don't you send the grapic and I'll compare what Mario did with yours?

I knew where the problem was and thought I could fix it, but nothing I tried worked! I'll e mail ya, Ivan.

I can send it as a graphics file if you want. Just either PM me or email me with the type you want and an email address where you can receive attachments. As a Windows metafile (*.wmf), it's 32KB. As Encapsulated Postscript, 291KB. I can convert it to other formats as well, just let me know.

mawahhh! Thanks Ivan, but I can't tranlate midi to dots, and my ABC program won't accept your abc--one of those midi abc's with "incorrect note length"....wwwaaaahh!

Here's what I can deduce of the tune. I've transcribed only the melody part, but the first and second parts cross one another frequently. I'll try to get the second part done as well, but that may take a little longer.

There's a sound clip on the Jay & Molly website. It can be found here:

I don't know if the clip is long enough to produce the complete tune, but I'll transcribe what there is and you can see.

nope. At this point, I'll take anything I can get. Hoping somebody here has something. Thanks, Ivan. If I get one, I'll let you know.

Sorcha, do you have a MIDI? If so, I can produce the dots for you.

I searched too Mario. Went to Jays' site and he doesn't offer a lead sheet for this one. If I have to, I can e mail him, just thought I'd ask here first.

I didn't have any luck seaching, sorcha; but the title is actually "Prairie Spring", though it is indeed a waltz.

We seem to be on a roll lately, so thought I'd ask for this. It's a Jay Ungar tune, I think from the Harvest Home CD. ABC, lead sheet, whatever. I can't get dots from midi, but somebody else could for me. Thanks!
