Yes - but it was in the context of how might one create music that would
facilitate a particular desired result.
'Ought to' in this sense meaning "it would probably work best if . . . " -
to bring about this particular result.

I *knew it*!
That was a rare fine display of Celtic fire if I ever saw one.
The most sure way to raise a Celt's ire is to tell them they either *can't*
or *must* do something - guaranteed way to get their dander up.
(I should know - being mostly Scot, with a good splash of Welsh to go along
with it.)
