The Feud: Classical Music by Ellen Cherry [Game Over]

Oh! This is only my 3rd feud. 2 middle of the packers, 1 dead last.

I hate opera…

The proper name of the ballet is The Nutcracker. The Nutcracker Suite is derived from the ballet, and has at times been more popular than the full-length work from which it was abridged, but is not a ballet in and of itself.

Wow, I didn’t expect last (usually I know when I’m sucking at these). I must be less cultural than everyone else.

If I hadn’t decided to skip this feud, I would have voted Tosca in that category, probably for that exact reason–I just saw Milk last weekend.

FWIW he would have been mine had I gotten in in time. Also, my movie would have been Red Violin.

Thanks! You are our resident pedant, and demolisher of ignorance! Sometimes it’s too much work to research things.

(I’m not being a smart ass - I really do appreciate your input. :))

If y’all came up with a feud about [del]fart blossoms[/del] brussels sprouts I wouldn’t do so good because of all the gaggin’ I’d be doin’. :smiley:

Welcome to the club, previously inhabited by me and the Worm . IChINISAN was making a good effort to get in but fell away.

Here I was afraid that I’d be nibbled to death by swans, but it turns out that it was the composer that kept me out of the top spot.
