Mike: And it is nonsense. Vivaldi, Verdi ... Paderewsky [!
-I mean, the Minuet in G is okay but he's hardly a composer
at all.] not Rosetti [Who? You mean the poet/painter?] etc.
Mike, you knee-jerked. The guy was fiddling with his theory
about the "greatest" composers. Hence Elgar, Smetana, et

article, though, I think you would have found less with
which to disagree.
