Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Goin' Back to Beethoven (Eclectricity)
It's now on YouTube. The kind of "humor" I enjoy. Just when they mean to quote Brahms, they are actually quoting a Hungarian folk dance of which Brahms only made a famous arrangement. Mozart was a decent folk dancer himself, and Beethoven arranged English folk music for bucks.
