Create the Perfect Composer Name Game

[snyprrr]

Love it.

I'm curious Karl. You MUST have had this conversation with yourself at some point. My theory is that you spell your name like whitman because it's the only way that you can reconcile being a composer with a semi common name.

I mean, you can't just go by Henning (Doug beat ya!,... or even David Hemming, haha).

Even Williams had a Vaughn in front of it.

What can we do to tart up your name,...make it more sexxxy for the younger demograspic??

Even Henningburger or Henningstein won't do.



Yes, yes,... I know people like Bridge and Cage and Glass got away with it,...but,....NO MORE!!!

We demand our composers have composer names!!!!



I don't know,...maybe we can market you as a Swede?!!!!



So, you mmust tell me,....were you mad at your parents? What do you WISH your name had been? Had it been Smith, would you still have gone with it?

And no, I won't believe you if you say Ka rlH enn ing!!
