This is Pluperfect: I'm Franz Joseph Haydn

Posted on 16:27 by Unknown
You scored as Haydn. You will go far by staying close by, instead of using your energy to climb the ladder of success. You are content to live in a small but dignified world, and you thrive in it.

I love Haydn, and the older I get, the more I appreciate the subtlety of his work. He has - due in no small part to his extraordinarily long career - more depth, breadth, and even humor than Mozart. Of course, Mozart was the most complete genius of all composers, but he died too soon: Haydn was killer in his mid-forties and fifties. Mozart - tragically for him and for us - never saw those years.

Found a new American Popular Art archive. Never heard of Baz before, but I like his work.
