:) :) Anyone looking for a sex tour is going to be bitterly disappointed.

Poulenc's "Sextour" is prolific when one does a web search. Perhaps these too will soon be taken down.

Haha! I think the reason is because in Danish "sex" means 6.

But, "Sryinx" - I can't even pronounce it. :)

What if Poulenc's Sex Tour is a completely different work from his Sextour? Posthumous? Known to just a few, like Hansen?

His Sex tour is known only to a few because it was banned soon after publication. :)

Well, it is now quite clear what step one in proofreading should be. ;)
