Not really.  The problem with this sample is that this Eulenburg
edition is far too small to really show high typography.  While it
leads the eye well, it exhibits far too much other typographical
defects, for example the second and last beam, both presenting those
small white triangles which should *never* be present in former times
since they can be flooded with ink as soon as the printing plate gets
used a bit.  If you want to show us good typography please refer to a
large score for a piano solo piece, say.
I don't feel that it is important to consider the plate printing dilemmas in computer output. My intention was to show the repeated notes, only the stem lenghts, not to imply that the example is extraordinary typography. I can see that the stems are the same lenght when the notes are repeated. But then again I got my new glasses last week.
