Subj: [kl] Orosz technique

I came across "THE OROSZ TECHNIQUE of Flawless Finger Mastery" from an ad
on the Bulletin Board.
http://www.magicmusicianfingers.com/TheBigPicture.html
Has anyone tried this - are the extravagant claims valid?

Subject: Re: [kl] Some interesting history
Dan,
Thanks for rescuing this charming memoir from oblivion! I rather think that
if you could get a publishing firm to organize pictures, it would sell quite
well in the Houston symphony foyer, and also on the web, and it would have a
long shelf-life. Pictures would have to include a thumb-plate and
conservatoire oboe.
Best wishes,
