This B-Flat note in the cosmos reminded me instantly of Schubert and
sure enough, I looked at, then played from my CD's, his String Trio in
B flat, D. 581, String Trio in B flat, D.471, Piano Trio in B flat,
D.898, Piano Trio in one movement in B flat, D. 28 <<Sonate>>, all on
Philips 438 700-2 Schubert Complete Trios (Beaux Arts trio and Grumiaux
Trio).  Then I played Schubert's Piano Sonata in B flat major, D960 with
Radu Lupu, piano, on London 440 295-2.

Perhaps Schubert intuitively captured this deepest musical note flying
through space for millions of years.  Any other composers who were
especially attuned to B flat?
