Yes! I experienced similar tricks, and much more, in Sermoneta, July 1989.

I believe everyone should have there own personal copy of the book.

Fortunately I don 't have to consult my well worn out copy so often now, so
I can leave it on the shelf (in reach although) where it belongs.

But I do keep the preface in mind most of the time. It is a picture drawn o=

the backside of my copy of Nielsens clarinetconcerto: three circles beside
each other, the left one is - To have -, the one in the middle - To do - an=
d
the one to the right - To be - We are always in one of those areas, the
advice says: "Keep to the right!" This advice, the best I have ever
received, is also dated Sermoneta, July 1989. Thank you!
