I am feeling much better now, thanks.
Woke up in a 'fowl' mood. Were you being hen pecked Michael?

I overslept this morning so I decided to stick with Haydn - and the "Clock" symphony seemed appropriate. I'll let tomorrow be a "Surprise".
Farewell for now.
(By the way, I am not trying to corrupt this thread. I really am listening to Haydn these days - prompted by the Symphony series on BBC. In my choices of music, I let myself be swayed by whatever is currently under discussion.)

Listening this week to all of Beethoven's quartets in sequential order with the score. Incidentally Delius dismissed Beethoven to a shocked Fenby as nothing but scales!
Whist we're in this off quilter mode - the art critic Brian Sewell has recently claimed that he was the illegitimate son of another Delius Protégé, Philip Heseltine aka Peter Warlock.'Man know thyself'
