I'd forgotten the use of the term "dampen" in this context until I read your text. Bises Tantine I don't speak such good Musicianese, but my Stringese is not that rusty.

	Tantine Number of messages: 2747	Hi Xini In this particular case, in fact, you can use either form, as both can be translated into Italian (musicianese) as "mentre". If I made the suggestion it is more because it "sounds" better to my ears. There is no problem in translating it as it is, mine was just a suggestion, not an imperative. Baci Ruth
