Static Page Comments
- December 2, 1998, on Bizet's Carmen:
It is apparent that the people who place comments
on this page are exactly the kind of people who
have plagued musicians for centuries and have
driven many composers to the edge. To those
people, Verdi's "Otello" was written for you.
Bizet's Carmen is a fantastic example of setting
and music and it was a smash hit in London, St.
Petersberg, Brussels, Naples, Florence and around
the world. If you aren't intelligent enough to be
able to see the genius in a composers art, then
just shut the hell up because you could not do
better if you had a thousand years to try.
