Edit: LOL, wait. I meant ROSSINI. Puccini has some OK things, I admit. La Boheme for example. Though if I hear "O Mio Babbino Caro" again...!

And, hahaha oh wow. Musicologists what? I know a lot of composers who are also musicologists. I mean, uh, it's not that uncommon.

Nevermind that composers are fundamentally theorists if you're going to call them something, after writing music is the most theoretical thing ever even if you can get instant playback, most of the stuff you want to hear isn't immediate and must be therefore had in theory!

Yeah, I mean really if it's not Babbitt they can burn in hell. Srsly, lawl
