Yes, but don't ask me to explain it with words. ;-)
Seriously, I've played it half a dozen times over the last 20 years. I
can do it, but I can't explain it beyond very vague terms, which would
probably be meaningless to others. For me, if I could explain it in
words, I wouldn't need the music.
If you heard one of my broadcasts, you might not agree that I've done it
successfully.
