2:50am and I'm still not tired. I have been killing time (though I should be doing academic work) by exploring some of the goodies in the remnants of this site, home of the German Composers quiz.

If I were one of Elgar's Enigma Variations, I would be Dora Penny (Dorabella).

Elgar gave me my nickname after a graceful Mozart character. I stutter a bit when I talk, but Elgar and I exchange puzzles anyway, as he recognizes my inner beauty.

The images appear to be broken, but I like the quiz nevertheless:


If I were a Dead Russian Composer, I would be Dmitri Shostakovich!

I am a shy, nervous, unassuming, fidgety, and stuttery little person who began composing the same year I started music lessons of any sort. I wrote the first of my fifteen symphonies at age 18, and my second opera, "Lady Macbeth of the Mtsensk District," when I was only 26. Unfortunately, Stalin hated the opera, and put me on the Enemy Of The People List for life. I nevertheless kept composing the works I wanted to write in private; some of my vocal cycles and 15 string quartets mock the Soviet System in notes. And I somehow was NOT killed in the process! And Harry Potter(c) stole my glasses and broke them!

Werll... Cherry Hinton being a thoroughly Tory ward (feh!!), the Lib Dems still need someone to stand for councillor, even if said person doesn't win. Someone rather near and dear to me has been sort of asked at one point. They haven't reckoned yet with the Lady Macbeth of Cherry Hinton ;-)
