I can't claim to have read any sort of "official" biography of Pettersson,
but such a claim would indicate that he was either a gross prevaricator or
suffered from amnesia.  What else did he do during his *nine years* at the
Conservatory or the years spent studying under Leibowitz, Blohmdahl, and
Honeggar?
