Re: What would you like improved on tonebase?
@Andrea LeVan I was just thinking the same thing…especially when I try to access TB on my phone. It is challenging to find the Forum you want on your phone.

Re: June Recital!
@Peter Golemme I attended a lovely masterclass yesterday with Vanessa Latarche from the RCM in London, and she’s a Bach expert. She agrees with us…the double dotting IS fine and makes sense with how…
