Hmm that window looks a bit suspect too! I think I can safely say I'll never be able to
play that.

Thought the timing was a bit off on a triplet in bar 167 Seriously, awesome stuff. But a true word of warning about anyone tempted by the curse
of Paganini. Remember Nicola Hall, the Brit protege classical guitarist a few years back?
She can't play any more and is studying law. She permanently damaged her hands wrapping
them round Paganini.

There are a lot of myths surrounding Paganini ,but, i do believe he use to stretch his
fingers with weights for years to sorta lossen them and lengthen them. I do belive Listz
was the first dude to manage to transpose many of his works to the old joanna.

Well, if it works fine... but with all those
weights to hand I can think of a far better place to hang them. A place where more length
really does bring real rewards
