"I don't at all mind actively disliking a piece of contemporary music, but in order to feel happy about it I must consciously understand why I dislike it. Otherwise it remains in my mind as unfinished business."

I own everything except for the Copland...

Also, I hate when they refer to Mozart PC 21 as "Elvira Madigan"... Come on, it was just a movie.

Most nicknames are posthumous and dubious but, yes that is one of the most irksome.

That kind of reminds me how, when I was younger, I would look for classical music on popular peer-to-peer networks and find atrocities such as :

"Vampire Dracula Frankenstein Phantom of the Opera spooky organ theme"  (Toccata and Fugue in D minor, of course)
