Note 1 to The Editor of DUOS: The scores are 'read' and 'played' by a computer: Therefore, no nuances, no subtlety, no gradual transitions can be expected because notes and silences cannot be compared with a professional ensemble interpreting a score; only scores or works with this folio that you deem as suitable will be re-commissioned so they may be performed and recorded. Very few pieces exceed a length of one minute. They were conceived as selections to be fitted together or contrasted with complementary works in the vast collection {over 1800 works] to suit the needs of programmers and artists so as to meet both concert and occasional uses.

Note 2 to The Editor: To hear and follow a score, click the > button. To stop a rendition, click within any bar; to pick up where you stopped listening, click the orange > icon found at the top left-hand corner of the bar (next to the measure number) you want to hear within the folio. Should the playing hit a snag or appear to sputter or stop altogether [a memory overload glitch], click on a measure anywhere to pause the 'freeze' and then please click the orange > icon found at the top of any individual measure that appears on your screen to let the music rendition continue. You can also advance the score by moving the bar at the bottom of a score window. All original music was composed by Dr. Thomas; all music in the Caritatem-Charivari Collection is copyright-protected by the 7 Arts Foundation.
Interludes
Dear Editor: All of the thirty-seven works in this folio were ranked by both college and professional music composer-arranger previewers as clearly intelligent, sensitively, inventively constructed, able to impart a clear emotional response from professional performers.
