Those that do not follow string theory might have been less inclined to believe in it’s history?

That the singing bowls might by analogy lead to “another thought” when clicked on?

A linked paragraph to some greater kernel of truth,or some “orchestration” in the value of sound?

Change the M to an O, however, and you have some seriously dazzling beauty (of voice). Combine her with Barbara Bonney, who happens to seriously dazzle with voice AND face, and you have--yes, it's better than sex--the beginning of act II on this dvd. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000056JSS/102-2145595-8187327?v=glance&n=130&v=glance Not sure if there are any triangles in this one, but you can be sure that the next time I watch Parsifal I'll be listening...

I'm a straight female but I'm dazzled by the stunning beauty of Anne-Sophie Mutter. I haven't heard any of her recordings but judging from all the CDs she seems world-class. With THAT combo going for her she could have had any guy in the world, and she married Previn? WHAAAAAAATTTTTTT?

Oh, wait, that's impossible. -cvj P.S. I used to like Andre Previn until I learned that he married Anne-Sophie Mutter. I'm very annoyed at him indeed. The younger me fell in love with her in 1985 upon hearing her play the Brahms Violin concerto (the first time I heard it) at the BBC Proms over Radio 3. (Yes, the radio....I had no idea what she looked like.....it was her playing that got me.) I still have the recording, and it's fantastic. Hmmm...maybe it's Brahms I was in love with. citrine, have you been quantum xeroxed?!! Oh, wait, that’s impossible.

Schrodinger's cat. (Where again do you find diacritical marks that can be used here? Anyway, assume the umlaut.) I play classical piano and have performed in public just once. It can be pretty nerve-racking! On TV I've seen Andre' Previn conduct from the piano while playing Mozart's piano concerto # 9 in E flat (my favorite!). I've always admired the kind of coordination and reflexes required for this effort. Does that ability make one a Superconductor? :) I don't mean this to sound patronizing, but is there a lot of competition to be a percussionist for an orchestra? Again, pardon my curiosity, but what special skills are needed for this job above and beyond a good ear and quick physical reflexes?
