Subject: RE: Who Was Your First Music Teacher?
Oops I forgot ... Peter, is this is the grave you dream of descrating?

If so, I don't blame you. Poor Chopin was dying of TB when he wrote the (in)famous Raindrop Prelude. It's haunted conservatory syllabi at intermediate level for over a century now. But take heart ... when it's executed with better than morbid technique and a touch of artistry, rigor mortis can be prevented in both performer and audience!
