It's all about the music, dude! Sit down, relax and listen to some tunes.

Re: Delius - another obnoxious composer but beautiful music

I didn't realise that Delius had syphilis - this is what robbed him of his sight in his later years, and may well have been the reason for his misanthropy.

In contradiction to a comment from one of the posters on this thread, it seems he did have a formal musical education (in Leipzig)
