It's all about the music, dude! Sit down, relax and listen to some tunes.

About those HIP musical terms

Was anyone else forced to read "Transactions of the Royal Society" to study Newton's famous debate with Huygens and Hook over his Opticks? Or the Declaration of Independence from an original manuscript?

If so, you know all their "S's" looked like "F's".

I haven't seen an actual HIP score of, say, Pergolesi or Handel; are there Concerti Groffo?, or tempo markings like Foftenuto or Preftiffimo? I mean, historical versimilitude and all.....

OK, I'll go away now.
