most impressive! RealSpectrum is much better, although there are
still glitches in that emulator when it comes to playing music, as
though it can't keep up with playing a series of notes - that's the
main thing I miss about my real Spectrum +2.
The tune is much more faithful to Grieg's original - like how I
recoded it for the Special Edition of Manic Miner 4, although of
course I was restricted by the 48K MM/JSW tune-format there.
It's just a shame that the tune goes back to the beginning whenever
you enter a new cavern or lose a life, especially with it being a
full-length version of "In The Hall Of The Mountain-King".
