[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

The confidence of some people is truly terrible to contemplate.

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."

Its safe to say I will not be listening to any Metal, Rap or Country music anytime soon.
Edit: I will add Opera and Art-Song to that list too! :)

Don't even ask. What's new with you?
Well, he has time to come up for air anyway.  ;)

I suppose the funny answer would be my wife. But that is not true. Evidently, I am quite a catch.
But I don't lisen to the music of Gustav Mahler anymore.

I'm definitely not listening to any Strauss whether it be Richard, Johann, Johann II...

Hahaha. I actually really, really like Johann II, though. I played the overture to Die Fledermaus when I was in orchestra in college. Very fun. On that same program was the Bartok Dance Suite, which was even more fun, but extremely tricky.
Beethoven's Op. 133 -- A fugue so bad that even Beethoven himself called it "Grosse".

specifically in reference to today.
Had I followed my normal routines in listening to small sets (in this case, the Brilliant triple deckers of Smetana's Orchestral Works,  Bizet's Orchestral Works, and Bruckner's Masses),  I would have listened to Bruckner's Te Deum  and Smetana's Festive Symphony at some point today.

But somehow those did not feel right for today.  So I put them off until tomorrow.
