Not a better phrase, but just as inaccurate.  It isn't just that Mozart's
music is not mono-emotional.  I really am not aware of any composer of any
type of music whose emotional display is just *1*.  That even goes for the
2-3 minute rock songs of the 1950's.

Of Joseph's three recent postings, two have been of the "bashing" variety.
How about a few postings of composers you appreciate? How about Howard
Hanson?
