So if Dan (my husband) ever writes a piece of music that includes oboe, at least I know he can demand I get to play the gig. Or at least Vaclav Havel feels that his play should include his wife as a lead.

I dunno. Does a composer, writer, or other kind of “creator” get to have a say in things once he or she has released a work to a director or conductor? I wonder.

Anyone out there have an opinion on this?

Anyone out there …?
