HI All,
First, I want to thank you for your responses. This has been an interesting thread. I have learned some things about myself and you have provided confirmation for some of my beliefs.I whipped out this little ditty for those of you who would have me drawn and quartered; guilty of having the temerity to criticize your hero. I must ask why none of you bother to deal with the most basic musical value? To make it primary. Our emotional response to the music.
The more reasonable among the replies show emotional sensitivity. To you I say, “you get it”. To the acedemics and Mozart Mafia I have this to offer:
EMPTY, UNKNOWING
I have suffered your blows and furious anger
We shared our vision; you reveal yourself
As empty husks of powdered dust
Do you feel nothing?
Do you see nothing?Ah, but how self important you sound
You scream your lack of feeling
And take pride in your emptiness
And but for the explosion of glory
I would be the sameI see thee, feel thee, love thee,
But I cannot be thee, not any more, not any more
Perhaps we will meet again on some distant shore
Perhaps you will discover your secret love, the way of love
Emptiness filled, we will be as one andYou will lack no more

In the old days it used to devolve into soccer?
Anyway more poetry, but less lyrics please.My opinion - Mozart RRULZ or SUKZZ, which ever is better?
Truly awful poetry, but it does mate well with the dimestore psychoanalysis, non sequitur logic and juvenile posturing of your other posts.
Seriously, I am not the least bit offended that you don't like Mozart. I didn't like Mozart for many many years. It took a lot of listening, and required me to dig deeper that the "Greatest Hits" CD.
You might keep in mind that composers build on work that went before.
Mozart could not have existed without Bach and Haydn, whom he deeply admired. Beethoven could not have written what he did without Mozart, Beethoven was a great Mozart fan. Beethoven carried with him Mozart's 24th piano concerto and was reported to have said "we will never be able to write music like this"Steve
