Premise #1: In a modern, scholarly remaking of the Faust legend, a noted
musicologist sells his soul to the devil in return for the original
autograph score to Mozart's K. 622 Clarinet Concerto and a chance to make
The Definitive recording of all time.

Premise #2: Our scholarly, time traveling hero tracks down the first usage
of the word "dark" to describe tone quality and makes sure that the
published version never makes it on to the printed page. An action-packed
thriller this new novel is the first of a series dealing with semantic
adventures and mis-adventures.
