A la Pianowelsh, a second for the day. Bach-Alkan Siciliano

...and if you should have this?

Maybe is in the Alkan site.  I have not checked.  Maybe I'll post it myself if you don't beat me to it.

:)

Thanks.

yes - you need an old piece of software, or one that doesn't use safety encryption. I use GSview - free software with a passionate disregard for security.

So you can print off all your alkan sheets! You will probably have to save the pdf to your harddrive first though...

Still can't print.  Oh, well, I may do like in the old days and copy it by hand (or place the laptop on the music stand).

If you have a printable pdf, it is appreciated.
