I Know, it would probably be easier if it was built it up element by element. also, one main problem is the pitch difference with both themes. Howell's is exactly F#, but Glynn's is in E and slightly detuned -10 cents (more or less) just like the original derbyshire theme.

I really don't why I picked it. Personally I think middle 8 matches better. If I used the 1986 I'd have to shift both pitches more cents to make it blend better.
