The answer to 30dn surely is a tyrant rather than an anarchist?

Finished apart from 6th letter in 9dn. Can't see that either possibility makes much sense. Could someone enlighten me please?

Whoops - think I must have read it wrong
"G" would also fit!

hello again teenieleek - In my Bradford's Xword dictionary "continuo" is given as a synonym for bass.
Similarly in Chambers

Thanks Sudokulover, that explains the bass part but how can continuously mean "with interruption" - what am I missing here?

I'm assuming it is a misprint should be without?

A misprint is fine by me. Usually when I think there's a misprint, it's me who is missing something but in this case happy to agree with you. Thanks

I also assume a misprint in the clue for 9d. Have finished, but can't see the wordplay for 29dn. Explanation anyone?
