Hello Daniel,
but you have to be careful about using Mozart in certain churches, as he
composed Don Giovanni also. Isn´t the count in Figaro attempting to breach his
marriage too ?
And how about Falstaff ? Where Sir John Falstaff is trying to have an affair or
better several
affairs ????
A lot of priests should better clean the garbage at their front door first
before discriminate
genius creations. Let me think: weren´t there a lot of disgusting affairs with
young boys
where priests were involved ? If I recall, there were plenty.
They should let people get their favorite DECENT music be played at their
church
ceremonies as weddings or funerals.
I remember a march, composed by my first classical kapellmeister (Haussik) at
the brassband in my
young years. He gave it the title "Haut´s ´n eini !", to be translated "Thrown
him in (the grave)".
He wanted that we played that at his funeral, so we did, - and nobody had any
objection.
