Perhaps this one will take longer than our previous gentle lob.

Perhaps not.

...it seems we ourselves have committed a rather flagrant error of judgement. Just a tick.

Yes. Indeed we had posted a file on which the mp3 IDs were still plain to see once opened in iTunes. It was indeed to have been the Mozart Piano concerto KV 451. Oh well. Back to the proverbial drawing board.

Bother, bother and bother.

Those silly names keep hiding away where one least expects them.

We are disheartened but shall try another one.

We are sorry to have to inform Mr. Matticus that his suggestion is incorrect on this occasion.

We have always thought Berg such a self-indulgent fellow to have produced a thing such as Lulu!
