Ligeti, sirens, Le Grand Macabre?

Not a great fan of Ligeti though I have a Wergo LP of Requiem, Lontano...

Not only does the Bantock box have 3 nudes, 4 of the CD sleeves have semi-clad or nude Helena, Sappho and pagan ladies  Embarrassed

The entirety of my cultural experience is limited to watching Walt Disney's Love Bug films. Does that make me a herbivore?

mediochre orchestral playing

Dull, middle-of-the-road Brahms playing that gives rise to his reputation as a composer of 'brown' music.
