I guessed kYRA, but really had no guess whatsoever for DE_OCT or kA_ET, even though I play music regularly. I suppose I should learn the actual names for the symbols that appear on sheet music. At least I know what to do when I see them. Of course, I probably don't ever see a TACET, per se, but do see shorter rests. Anyway, this is what I'd expect on a Saturday, so it's fine. Loved all of the fifteens. I suppose I'd rank them thus: DEADASADOORNAIL, OLDACQUAINTANCE, OCTOBERSURPRISE, MEATANDPOTATOES.Huygenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14539030936919012404noreply@blogger.com
