[r-t] Quarters of cyclic major

[Adam Brady]

I'm pleased you like it Philip.  I thought when I discovered it that
someone else must surely have thought of it, but I decided to place it on
my brother's web site anyway, at least until someone else claimed it.  It's
nice that it unites my favourite double major methods in a neat palindromic
composition.  It's also a happy accident that the final lead of the plain
course of DNCB is the only one which doesn't contain a run (apart from
rounds at the end - cue argument about rounds being at the beginning or the
end of a peal).

"e^(i.pi) + 1 = 0" is the recommended pretentious footnote should anyone
ring it.

The run count is 6 of each 4-bell off the front and 10 of each at the back,
apart from those including the treble.

You could replace the leads of Bristol with something to give runs off the
front (e.g. Jellied Eel Surprise Major - there are probably other options
too) but it would make the whole thing seem less elegant.
