Bearing in Mind Bill(Y)'s E-Mail address:- he reckons by the time One gets

Walter Meyer wrote of Beethoven's 9th:

>The word "Friede" (peace) is absent from the 8-9 stanza text of Schiller's

Hadn't Herr B just lived thru the Napoleonic Wars including the Shelling of

to Ludwig ??

It DOES get "worse" there's a Recording somewhere of "Dame Edna Everage" or
Mr Barry Humpries doing something like Peter - the "Down Under" Version!!

Stokowski also had a Nashless "Carnival of the Animals" on 78's.  This may
be that thing that Dame Edna did = Possums and Roos!!
