9th Symphony when he found out what they were really like).

Of course you meant to type 3rd Symphony, the Eroica.

Slanting wildly OT, re your comments on French invasions of Germany and
anti-Germanism, how deep do you believe the rapprochement between France and
Germany really is? It's certainly cost the German taxpayer quite a bit of
money, with no end in sight.

Not too great even now. Most of the problems in earlier centuries
seem to have come from the French Elite in my opinion with more
admiration than animosity.
