A displaced Californian composer writes about music made for the long while & the world around that music. ~ The avant-garde is flexibility of mind. — John Cage ~ ...composition is only a very small thing, taken as a part of music as a whole, and it really shouldn't be separated from music making in general. — Douglas Leedy ~ My God, what has sound got to do with music! — Charles Ives

R.W., the action figure
I suppose that it's obvious -- if any composer were going to be a minature action figure, it'd have to be Richard Wagner (who, at around 150cm tall was pretty much a miniature action figure in the flesh). The manufacturer also has a Mozart on offer, but wouldn't a Gesualdo have been more like it?
