I am reaping benefits of my 'lack of ambition' (aka) contrariness--i
refused to attempt k622 concerto when i was undergrad.

As far as the editing and editions, i have pencilled the changes, and
now i am working on memorizing the 3rd movement, so the notation doesn't
detract from the music.
This is by far the biggest memory work i have done. That is enhanced
with singing and note-name solfege and harmonic lyrics "C ar-pe-gi-o-to-G
sev-en then back to...."
