I found this fragment in July 2006 in the astounding album kept by the oboist Leopold Ganz. At the time, my interest in Ole Bull was just beginning, so I forgot that I had copied it out, alongside entries from Clara Schumann, Ede Remenyi, Ernst, and Nicolas Mori. But now it has surfaced from the chaos of that day’s note taking.
