But I met Hindemith. Initially he was more humble. Because he
ended every single movement of every single work with a major
chord I asked him if I could change the one in the clarinet
sonata to a minor chord. He ceased being humble and kicked me in
the ass for asking. Now that he is dead, I suppose it is OK to do
it.

Kurt,
Of course - that's because Hindemith was much more humble then

he asked him if he could change some things and Hindemith said it
was ok "You know more about oboe than I do".
