[Matisse] was interested neither in fending off opposition,
nor in competing for the favor of wayward friends.
His only competition was with himself. — Françoise Gilot

Sarge

Actually I associate MI with three-day long spurts/marathons. I also associate MI with many of our forum's little waves where everybody decides to listen to the same thing. If I open the listening thread and see that everyone has Prokofiev on, or Delius, or Martinu, I assume MI is responsible.

As accurate as that is, that's not even considering the jazz or prog...

Florestan

Although, I tend to link James with Daniel Asia instead.

James reminds of Pfffffffokhausen;D

Interesting thing about this old thread (Florestan really went spelunking today, into the depths of GMG  :D ) is the discovery that we used to have a member called Lady Chatterley  :o

You don't even suspect how right you are.  :D "Speluncă" in Romanian means "tavern", even "ill-famed tavern", and honestly I've had a few shots...  ;D

Cato with . . . Toch or Bruckner?

I also started Taneyev's Tent of Twirbling Tones  ??? 8)  and the incredible Stockhausen's Spaceship which has been boarded and commandeered by James a la Captain Kidd   0:).

Another Russian composer, whose name also begins with T, is connected to me.

Brian with Dvorak, Beethoven, Shostakovich

And a substantial amount of my association with Beethoven is a direct result of our resident (or not?) Beethovenian-in-chief: Todd.
