[TPIN] Antihistimine Topic TPIN Dean Howard

[Michael Goode]

Dear Mr. Howard,

As I said before in my previous post, antihistamines caused my tempos  
to accelerate.   This happened because antihistamines were overdriving  
my heart rate not from nervousness.   I will be explaining the reasons  
for this next year when I begin teaching a course at the UCLA Medical  
School next fall on the nervous system
and performance to the 2nd year medical students there.   My thesis  
advisor at the University of Chicago Medical School taught for thirty  
years on the U of C faculty and my work in psychoneuromusicology is  
followed by a number of physicians there.    The University of Chicago  
along with Cambridge University has the most Nobel prizewinners in the  
world including one who follows my work.   The reason my degree is an  
MLA a Master of Liberal Arts is because when you invent a entirely new  
field of science
which my advisor said I did, you have to do it within an  
interdisciplinary program that would allow the creation of new and  
unique research that blends many different fields,
music performance, psychology and neurophysiology which is what I did.   
   I did not "fashion" any signature for myself.   These are all things  
I actually do.  Since I also perform, teach, write and do research, I  
got tired of having to have different multiple signatures for each of  
the people that I have to work with so I combined them into one  
signature.

I will ask my teacher Bud Herseth whether he thinks my metronomic  
tempos are adequate and also my conductor at the National Academy  
Orchestra of Canada where I will serve as Artist Mentor this summer.    
And perhaps I should have kept a metronome running when I have played  
under Eric Kunzel and Leonard Slatkin.    I simply made a reference in  
my previous post to something that happened a long time ago when I was  
a student as I thought it might be helpful to others.

The cause of a speed up in your metronomic tempos is caused by  
nervousness not antihistamines. Practice with a metronome is what you  
need. Then when you know the music well enough you won't speed up and  
slow down at the wrong places. When playing with others listen for the  
tempos from the drummer or percussion section. Watch the conductor  
too.To the original poster who asked just keep a bottle a water with  
you for when your mouth gets dry. Trumpet playing can be work and it  
needs to be watered just like when you work out at the gym.Dude that's  
one long signature you have fashioned for yourself!  
Psychoneuromusicology isn't in my dictionary. Guess I need a medical  
dictionary. Do you speak for the University of Chicago Medical School  
when you post? Or it's English department cause MLA is the Modern  
Language Association. MLA is for term paper citations which the English  
departments require.- Dean Howard>I found that antihistamines always
