Today one of the most interesting neoclassical composers dies after a long disease.
Rip Henryk, so sad you'll never see your 'Fourth' in real live...

Graves are filled with men irreplaceable.
Wait...a celebrity "genius" has died...let me go and cry a bit.
Let's rationalize my caring by not ever being able to "enjoy" (as in, getting interested) a new piece of his music again. Oh the sadness.
i don't know how the world keeps turning.
Oh but he was so great...he was SPECIAL.
Let's not cry for the children in Gaza, let's cry for this man instead.
f**k you, f**k you, f**k you.
f**k YOU.

I was trying to formulate a suitable response to itnAklipse, I see from the above you were able to find just right balance of wit and tact. I thank you.
