What's you're favourite Composer 'look'?  I like light slacks, white shirt with rolled up sleeves, like The Professor on 'Gilligan's Island'! Ready for business! And you?

As for outrageous? Try to find the pic of Roslavets! ouch!

Everyone seems to ignore the cool threads, including this one...

Hard to beat Ligeti in this category. This picture is framed in my music room, along with records of Bartok, Reich, and Gershwin.




And of course,
Beethoven's Op. 133 -- A fugue so bad that even Beethoven himself called it "Grosse".

The country bumpkin look with the oversized jacket. Just off the bus (carriage), taking in the big city for the first time.




Sarge
the phone rings and somebody says,
"hey, they made a movie about
Mahler, you ought to go see it.
he was as f*cked-up as you are."

Right! Got caught looking at Repin's other portraits and suffered a brain mix-up :o

I'm quite impressed by this Boris Karloff look-alike's wondrously complex attire. Who is this??





Bartok

Ravel

Man I really have to get me some threads!! Surely I would write some good stuff if I just wore the right clothes? Currently I'm wearing the uniform of the new world slave (jeans/t-shirt)--- this won't do, This Thread Has Changed My Life!! ;D

Rachy and Bruckner Tie !!

But would you look at all them Sharped Dressed Men!!! "Every girl's crazy..."


Modest's Playboy Look gets my second vote!!! Look at those PJs underneath!!! :laugh: :laugh:

However, Wagner has always been the most "laid back", no? Always ready for ... lounging!!



wow, some great stuff- STILL wanna see Roslavets,... Langaard??... I KNOW I've see worse bow ties!!



Lenny was such a fashion whore. mm mm mm--- GOTTA LOVE TURTLENECK + JACKET OVER SHOULDER!!!!!!!!

Ffffffuuuuuuu.... where are you going to find a decent jj ??

snyprrr
