It has always been a part of my life, and I think I knew very early that it would be (it possibly hadn't even occurred to me that it might ...

Indeed, having parts would be nice, but the main problem is that most of the scans come from score books, and so we don't always have the parts to scan!

The other day, I signed up for an account on the french wikipedia, so that I could non-anonymously post Feldmahler's reply. Although I have a decent grasp of french, and am rather familiar with the mediawiki inter...
