Dear Professor Mento,
    I read the description of your materials at the website mentioned in
this post. I am interested in the possibility of using them to develop​ my
capabilities and need to ask your advice about where to begin. I am an
organist whose primary interests are music from before 1750 and from after
1950. My training and skills are limited. I have a good instrument.
As your first volume consists of topics with which I'm familiar, would
Volume 2 be an appropriate starting point? What little I know about
continuo is largely confined to its theoretical underpinnings.

Thank you in advance.

Best regards,

Selmer Moen
