Or post a pic of water melons.



Yea, there's nothing to discuss. People always reacted badly to new music. Perhaps Fux was too old fashioned. OR, as some have suggested, Fux himself (by way of his text) reined in some of the 'insanity' of the composers of future generations. (We all know Mozart, Haydn, Beethoven, Hans Zimmer studied Fux. Wait. Not sure about that last one there. Is he even a composer?)
