No, I cannot say I've ever remembered this Czech composer's music - if I ever heard it.

" Czech composer and former head of the Czech Philharmonic, Václav Riedlbauch, has died. His wife confirmed he had fought against illness for a year. Throughout his career Mr Riedlbauch authored numerous chamber and orchestral works including a ballet adaptation of Macbeth, which ran for six seasons at the National Theatre from 1984. "




Saint-Saëns, who predicted to Charles Lecocq in 1901: 'That fellow Ravel seems to me to be destined for a serious future.'
