On a musical note Syrinx was a nymph who was cut up into pieces to save her from Pan, probably by Zeus or one of those other guys who hides children in the skies so that they will be remembered... No he turned her into a reed or some other hollow plant which Pan found and cut to different lengths to make a pipe.... a bit like David. Musical themes in GW are hidden so obviously that I am growing numb from kicking myself when I hear a new theme that I recognise. Name any important piece of music known in 1967 (possibly 1972) and I will find a referent in 5HOC Better yet... mention any significant person, event, place or idea and I will tell you where it is found in this book. I DO know one of his tricks at least.
