(poco) Sforzando

See what I mean, they just love me here. I will have the last word in my own topic, or it will go on for ever and it will get into the top 10 like my first effort.  ;D

Oh! meine Theorie! Oh mein Ruhm! Ich werde unsterblich!
Unsterblich! Unsterblich!
Unsterblich!

Yes all good fun, but remember there's no such thing as bad publicity. You guys are doing my own promotion work for me.  ;D

We are doing an excellent job of driving traffic away from your site.

That's what you think. But I'm sure GMG benefits from my presence here too, the view count on my first topic was over 10,000 I think.

I think the allusion may be a little over the head of one who only likes two composers, Dr. Sfz.

No you just don't get it, I like the best and unlike yourself have little time to waste on the runners up and below them the utter crap that makes up most of the realm of classical music. Beethoven and Handel are the top of the tree. Simple as that. Deal with it Luke!  ;D You can listen to the crap all day if you want, and no doubt you do.

If you have no discernment you have nothing Luke.

Where on the tree does your String Quartet fall?

With the crap of course, where do you think? I dumped the one note on the page without even looking where I put it! I had you all fooled! ;D

Adios chaps!  ;)

Spent most of the day yesterday playing Beethoven, Rod. Myself, I mean, with my own fingers. Though I rounded off the day with some Jonathan Harvey.

I'll say this for Beethoven - for all the advocacy you give him, I still haven't been put off him. More than I can say for Mendelssohn, or (some) Elgar

OMG - you really think we were all taking your quartet seriously? That it was a convincing fraud which would have everyone fooled?  :o :o :o :o ??? ??? ??? ??? I'm staggered! Here I am, lazily assuming (as anyone with an ounce of sense would) that you understand that the whole discussion about your quartet, fanciful theories and mock-analyses and all, is taking place within enormous inverted commas, ....and it turns out you think we all were in earnest belief that it was a 'real' piece of music. What an ego..... ::)

I fooled you into thinking that I thought I had fooled you!  ;D

Oh I'm just too sharp Luke, too sharp...  8)

Or are you now fooling me into thinking I fooled you into thinking that I thought I had fooled you??  :-\

I understand that there is a time-lag between west-central Indiana and England, if I recall correctly, but doesn't Rowdy Roddy Corkin have a job? A family? Friends? A small animal? There's single-minded determination, and there's single-minded determination. If this is all a larf, then why so serious, friend?
