Actually, it's Brian Hall, but that's my fault.  I'm so tired of that
original message (we're down to my comparisons now?  argh!) I think
Kemp's reply said it best.  I have studied music quite a bit, though it
was not my major, and could give you quotes from soooo many sources
about Vivaldi that I'm sure you've already heard.  I humbly beg your
pardon for the hyperbole but it has been used by far many greater than
me, so I find it fair game at least in comparison.  

Still, I apologize if I may have offended your musical tastes.

sheeesh!
