Mus.'s Guild - can you help, please?

Post 1

Hi,

I'm an early member of the Musician's Guild, and I'm looking after a project (to which several Guild members are contributing) on Baroque Music at H2G2 University. The project is going well, with some articles ready to move towards release.

This is where I need some help ... and am hoping you might be willing\able to assist.

MM has just published the guidelines for Uni. projects - all of them very sensible. One of them is the requirement for a project to secure the services of a sub-editor, so that articles can be reviewed and subbed in a separate "stream" from other submissions. Scanning the list of Musician's Guild members and the list of sub-editors .... there's just one match .... guess?

Please let me know if you're interested ... and don't panic if I'm slow replying - I shall be off line over the weekend. BTW I'm working from Perth WA.

G'day Kes, I would be more than pleased to help. Behind every successful Aussie you can usually find a Kiwi. Kiwi-born people helped Aus win four gold and one silver medal at the Olympics. smiley - bigeyes

My brother moved to Perth last month. He is currently looking for a house to buy. Napier, NZ, was a bit small for him after spending 29 years in London. smiley - bigeyes

Right .... the traditional trans-tasman bashing session ... smiley - winkeye

I've only ever been to Wellington, (not counting a hair-raising non-landing at Christchurch airport), so I don't know your islands at all well. BTW - give me a yell if your bro. needs help.

Many thanks for your offer. I still have to sort out some admin. with the italics, but basically, the three key articles that comprise the original project are through drafting, and ready for subbing.

Perhaps you could take a look at them as they are now, and comment on how ready you think they are? The relevant ones are:
A420724 - Covering article on Baroque Music
A423154 - Vivaldi's Four Seasons - hidden meanings
A433748 - Back's Golberg Variations - hidden meanings

The original project submission (for your reference) is A403435

By early next week, I should have the admin. things sorted out (or at least understood!)

After these articles, we should consider others ... more on individual baroque composers? pieces? move into other eras? (Hope I'm not putting you off! smiley - smiley )

Seriously, I am most grateful for your offer of help, and I look forward to your comments.

Thanks again!

Kes, I will have to withdraw my offer to help sub the university music yarns. I don't believe I have the expertise required. If you check out the comments attached to today's front page featured article on the Classical Violin you will see what I mean.

I am also a bit busy at home to dedicate much time to the enterprise.

Sorry to muck you about.

OK - no problem. Thanks for taking a look, also thanks for letting me know quickly. Hope to see you around the place. Keep well.
