ah, so... are you, um, immodestly comparing yourself to Sibelius?

And simply because you fail to comprehend the complexity of Sibelius' music does not MAKE it in any way less complex. Your superficial assessment of Sibelius is simply more demonstration that your opinions have very little actual value.
But then, Gianluca, your credibility on this forum was shot months ago.
If you don't like tonal music, or neo-tonal music, just stay out of threads dealing with it. You just come acoss as another elitist ass.
