No, not Ben Franklin's (Deo gratias!). Someone much more interesting: Mozart. His 250th takes place a week from Friday. Can anything more be said about him? Well, Richard Morrison thinks so. Read Play it again, Wolfgang.
BTW, I haven't read David Cairns's Mozart and His Operas, but I reviewed Cairns's splendid biography of Berlioz. So this new book is something to look forward to.
Not a fan of old Benny Franklin??? How can you call yourself a Philadelphian, Frank?!?!?
ReplyDeleteBen was from Boston! Like D.H. Lawrence, I admire Ben. I do not like him.
