Ware is Britney Spears. Bone is Cinderella. It is cute that Smith doesn't understand it, but he wrote a fairytale that, with any luck, might just stick.

And look where classical music is today. The memorable music is produced for movies, television, and musicals, and popmusicians like McCartney and Joel dabble in the medium. Notable living composers are either expirementing with the technical aspects, like Cage, or producing historical operas, like Adams. Ware is Beethoven, Smith is Mozart. One is brooding, introverted, genius; one is extroverted, showman, genius. Me? I'm PDQ Bach... Hmmm. And look where classical music is today.
