You bet. That forum's fantastic. It's populated by academics who jump up and down with joy each time they re-discover a Zelenka manuscript. For a long time it was thought, wrongly, that much Zelenka had been destroyed by British Bomber Command in the Dresden firestorm of 1945. But they turned up in Russia!

Dresden manuscripts in Moscow
Friends,
fantastic news from Dresden, it is now official that a great deal of the music manuscripts that vanished after 1945 are kept in the Glinka Museum and the Russian State Library in Moscow. This has long been the suspicion...

Zelenkomania!
Trivia - His name literally means 'little green man'.
He was once a pupil of J.J. Fux. and then taught J.J. Quantz. When it comes to J.J.s, he's the missing link!

This is great. Thanks for that, Aiantas. He is wonderful.
I saw a picture of Fux yesterday. He looks a right evil bugger.
I shall befriend 'Zelenka' on myspace when I get home.

Yeah, but who's the guy in the picture!
We must find look-a-likes for these composers!
