I'm in a forgiving mood today.  I've taken my Tagamet and I've got a bottle of Tums handy just in case.

And I love both Haydns, and Bach, too!  Well, Michael Haydn was okay, although I never learned much of his stuff other than his Cello Concerto and a couple of serenades.

Youve never heard his trumpet concerto?

And of course everyone's heard Franz Joseph's 94'th symphony, mov. 2.  At 0:34 it's just a Blast

Who cares about trumpets?  I'm a cellist!

That symphony always makes me think of the costumes and group dances that those people did -- heavy dresses and high hair festooned with all kinds of crap, couples touching the tips of each others' fingers, lots of heavy makeup on both men and women, and the stink from their unwashed bodies heavy in the air, adding a bitter edge to their thick perfumes.

I am so glad that I live in the Age of Deodorant.
