Thread Name: No such thing as a B-sharp
Subject: RE: No such thing as a B-sharp
Much of the controversy above, BTW, re the theoreticians v. what the folk would actually have known, reminds me of the story of Cecil Sharp's friend looking at one of his transcriptions and saying, "No, you must have taken this down wrong, Cecil. You surely are not trying to tell me that a simple uneducated countryman could sing faultlessly in the Dorian Mode."
