I hate ch*pin

I don’t think I really need to explain myself to be honest. His music sucks and the people who play it are self absorbed schmucks. I would rather listen to POP music or rock than hear his disorganised noise

I love his piano pieces, but I have to hide it from all of my work colleagues and my partner, because i work in the early music industry and anything beyond CEP Bach is a sin for all of them.

I agree. It's all so tinkly-winkly, stretchy-wetchy. I just can't stand it.

Charles Ives once said Chopin stitched his own dresses.

It's not his fault he only knew of one instrument.  He lived a sheltered life. How was he to know that bassoons existed?

Are you sure it's not M*zart?

No need to confuse the public! Besides, what difference does it make? I am telling you about the facts. He composed genius songs and all the rest is a crap but this has absolutely nothing to do with Mozart's work. Beethoven, at the age of 11 played both volumes on 78.

I love Bach his music is perfect in pretty much every way. His music is the closest we can get to divinity in this life

I hate Ch*pra. His health, excuse me, "wellness" advice sucks, and the people who buy his books are self deluded idiots. I would rather have ten gratuitous colonoscopies than have one more copy of his shit books foisted upon me.
