Last year, I was working on Stravinsky, and my teacher told me
yet another interesting story regarding the second movement. She said
that when she was in college and learning the piece, no joke, her teacher
played a recording of it, crawled around on the floor and pretended to be
a cat stalking a mouse. She said that after that, she played it well
each time. Go figure.
