Composer's Notes
There used to be a TV advert in the UK for a product called Ronseal Wood Sealant. The advert said the following: “Ronseal Wood Sealant. It seals wood. Ronseal—does exactly what it says on the can.” My piece is called Breaking & Entering (with aggravated assault). It does exactly what it says on the can.
