Title: Violists Author: Richard McGowan This file should be named viols10.txt or viols10.zip (C)1994 Richard McGowan San Jose, California January 22, 1994 TEXTUAL NOTE: In this edition words of French origin in the text are spelled without their customary accent marks, due to the limitations of the ASCII medium. It is the author's intent that they be spelled with accents whenever possible (e.g., gateau, tete-a-tete). ===================================================================== PREFACE TO THE FIRST EDITION "Violists" began to germinate early in December last, as Christmas approached. I originally intended that it be ready before the new year, but alas, it came in behind schedule, and was not completed until January. It is still winter in some places--the right season for such morsels--so rather than let the work languish upon the shelf Somewhere out there on The Net, I hope there is a solitary reader settled comfortably in a warm study with a nice cup of tea. Perhaps the lights are out, and the amber glow of the terminal spreads faint warmth through the room; overstuffed bookshelves loom behind in the darkness. If the evening air is crisp and a soft snow is falling outside the window, so much the better--a view of icicles would be a magical touch. -- Richard McGowan San Jose, California January 22, 1994 ===================================================================== VIOLISTS by Richard McGowan | ||||
