The success of the individual in politics is often dependent upon being the right offspring.

Much of the weather in Britain lately has suggested that this year has had a write-off spring.

As you were.

Sorry.

I wasn't there at the première of this masterwork (and despite being no great admirer of most of its composer's music I still accept the monumental status of this piece), but I've never yet figured out what the fuss was about - but then I wasn't at the rather earlier premières of Verklärte Nacht or its composer's D minor string quartet either...
