    There's something vaguely apocryphal about this and rather cliched.

      You mean he's not dead?

        Thanks for the article Michael, I wasn't convinced of his death until then! But on the other hand now you've introduced an element of doubt again!

            Yes, the link seems as dead as the composer.
            Here it is again.

            As the Guardian was first published in 1821, the 1827 article seems genuine in spite of the odd opening sentence.
