Re: Pat Waing Notation

[Orm Finnendahl]

Hi Jaques, Werner,

 I wasn't aware of that, thanks that seems to be everything I need!
I'm no expert but it might well be that the notation in Myanmar is of
Chinese origin. I'll also ask a Chinese student of mine. He is quite
knowledgable about Chinese music and might be able to help
understanding the notation.

Best,
Orm
