So my duet of Clair was apparently overlooked during the project so I decided to submit it here instead. Made the Primo play mostly octaves since it is a 3-layer polyphony. Also included the entire middle voice, which I simplified in my solo version to make it more playable.

Wow, looks great! There are just a couple of small things I would like to address:
-Why are the notes in measure 3 on beat three (both hands) for the second part all beamed downward? All of them should be beamed upwards.
-The 8va line is running through the "1" in the first ending, could you raise the ending number a bit so that they are separated?
-I think the last system would look better/friendlier to read if it was shortened half-way, since it is only one measure.

I'll check the accuracy of the notes when I get home, but it looks/sounds great so far! Great work!

Few more things:
-Measure 1, first part (LH): down-beat of four should be an E# not an F#.
-Measure 2, first part (LH): first sixteenth note should be a D sharp, not an E# (pick a hand though; the RH of the second part is already playing this note).
-Measure 5, first part (both hands): up-beat of three and down-beat of four should be D# then C# descending.
-Measure 8, second part (RH): second note should be an E#, not an F# (sixteenth tied to an eighth).
-Measure 10, second part (RH): the two tied eighth note B naturals should be A#'s (sounds weird, but accurate).
-Measures 4, 6, & 9, second part (RH): the first two sixteen notes followed by a rest sound repeated, but in these instances you've made the second sixteenth an eighth note, making it sound weird (See measure 7).
-Measure 1, first part (both hands): the rhythm 16-16-8-8 is repeated twice, but in your version you have different articulations, unlike the original. I'd suggest adding the staccatos to the down-beat of two.

I did a few other small things, but here is a file with all that I have mentioned so far: [MUS]

Thanks! I'm surprised that there were inaccuracies on this sheet. Because Latios checked my solo sheet, and I looked at my solo sheet to make sure this one was correct, guessed he might have missed some notes. That also means that all these errors also exist on my solo sheet.

Although,

I don't think this is right. I think it should be a Bn. I slowed it down a lot and I'm 100% sure that it is a Bn.

^thats what I thought, but I literally re-downloaded it three different times from different sources to make sure. It's faint, but it's definitely a second there (or a ninth if you want to think about it like that).

I definitely doesn't hear it. I hear a G# in the top melody, a G# in the bass, and a Bn in the middle. I tried slowing it down to 0% speed and compared with my software keyboard. And I hear a Bn. Can someone else have listen to this so we can clear this out.

Never mind, it is a B natural. Playing it at regular speed makes that quite apparent. Although, slowing it down to 0.5 speed on windows media player still makes it sound like an A# for some reason. Must have something to do with the soundfont/frequencies.

double post, use this version or edit yours so that the rhythm in the second to last bar is the same in both hands:

ugh, one last thing (I swear): the measure numbers oddly occur on three of the four staves. Use this lol:

Looks acceptable now. Might want to have another updater check this out now too, just to be sure.
