When I grew up in Vienna I was taught that Haydn, Mozart, and Beethoven were THE classic composers. Of course that was a long time ago, and musicologists (which I'm not) or music lovers (which I am) may have as many opinions on this topic as Leicaphiles have on lenses etc. Oliver Bryk - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
