I've done 4 33. Then I saw a stunning blonde in a skimpy dress do it and I liked her ability to interpret it better. I think the phrases were more rounded, and the first figure was more rondo than mine. The allegro had my heart going and when she got to the finale I'm sure breasts rose in sympathy with the crescendo. I was enthralled. Her heel fell off and her toes curled in a pentatonic moment as she struggled to get it back on. The final note was the bench, now an aerophone in itself, scrapped a perfect D, doubled by the other leg, as the audience realized that her bow revealed D's in unison...

oh, well. It was poetry in motion...
