ABSTRACT
The question whether an Answerer participated in a given emotion or merely recognised that emotion as belonging to the music, this question of Participation versus Recognition, was made needlessly confused by an initial blunder in the drawing up of my Questionnaires. It is not, however, from mere humility that I am calling attention to this fact but that the clearing-up of the confusion due to my slovenliness has incidentally brought into evidence some important yet unnoticed aspects of the subject. So that the Reader’s forbearance in watching both the making of this mistake and then the gradual riddance of it, may be rewarded by a further insight into the various emotional responses to music, and by even some shrewd guesses about the First Person Singular and its ways.
