Take a look at this passage from the Wide Window
Klaus (talking to Aunt Josephine, when they were discussing Ike) says that his mother could whistle with crackers in her mouth, and her special was on Mozart's 14th Symphony.
Now looks at this from LSUA
On p. 79 it says, "but the most dispiriting replacement is that of the lead actress. My faithful readers will realize that I am somewhat prejudiced in this case, as I am engaged to be married to the original actress, but last night's performance by Emsè (?- her last name was smudged in the program) was simply dreadful. She cannot act. She cannot sing. And she cannot whistle Mozart's fourteenth symphony, as the play -the original play, that is- requires."
