I didn't think anyone in the universe disliked Mozart, and here it seems his reputation is just a notch below that of Sid Vicious. I'm wondering just which of Mozart's themes are based on a single-note (please hyphenate two-word modifiers, makes my proofreader heart skip a beat when I see that) melody. Some recititavos in the operas, perhaps, that was the style. But other than that I can't think of a single example. But other composers, yes. The andante of Beet 7 jumps to mind. Poor Mozart. Glad he doesn't subscribe to this list, he'd be very upset. Dave Runnion http://www.serafinotrio.com
