"For the Hall of the Mountain King I have written something that so reeks of cowpats, ultra-Norwegianism, and 'to-thyself-be-enough-ness' that I can't bear to hear it, though I hope that the irony will make itself felt." -- Edvard Grieg (b. 1843-06-15, d. 1907-09-04)
[Or maybe you'd prefer Apocalyptica's version ... in any case a lot of us seem to like the piece a lot more than its own composer did.]
