He was an interesting guy aside from being a great composer.

I am listening to his "The Rite of Spring" right now.

I googled 'The Rite of Spring'....came up with an NPR piece about the SCANDAL of the opening night of 'Rite Of Spring'...a scandal about the debut of a symphony...Boy has the world changed a lot in one century.

Interesting music, though.

Me too. Now I know where John Williams got a lot of his ideas, like music for Jaws...
