Notable alterations:
(1) Transposition of the ostinato, to allow melody and bass to be playable in original registers
(2) Omission of the whole note string pads
(3) Transposition and harmonization of the tubular bell line
(4) Omission of the 16th-note/semiquaver synth run in the repeat, substituted for an "mf-f" instruction.

The real calamity is not having this on site for a decade and a half

Thanks for the notes on the changes, everything makes sense and checks out! Approved

Looks and sounds great! Just a couple tiny things:
- I think the composer info would look better broken up into two lines, instead of being one long line.
- Would it be preferable to add a courtesy bass clef in the LH before the repeat?
- I'm getting a tempo of q=122. I know some arrangers like to round tempo markings to the nearest standard metronome marking, but I much prefer having the exact tempo since most metronomes I see nowadays are digital ones that can do every whole number BPM (and anyone who doesn't have one can just round to 120). Your choice.

Thanks~

I would do this if the text length were exceptionally long, and/or if I needed to fill vertical space. For this sheet, if I did that, I would need to push down the first system so that there's sufficient white space between the header and the first system. If I push down the first system, I would need to add space to the following systems to balance with the prior adjustment. If I add space between the systems, I would need to decrease the space between the staves with each system to compensate. If I decrease the space between the staves within each system, it would result in a lack of sufficient white-space between stemmed-up notes in the left-hand, and the downwards arcing slurs in the right hand.

Good question! Had to research this a bit. Seems Gould p.234 would agree with ya. I'll add that in

Your choice.

I like to round to traditional metronome markings (except if I know the user will be using a click track, as in the case of studio/recording session parts). The closest ones are 116, 120, and 126, so I rounded 122 to 120.

EDIT: Courtesy clef for repeat added now added in.
