It was happily sending people to the adaptation by Britten. The Britten work could do with being moved to (Britten) In ictu oculi (talk) 20:23, 18 November 2025 (UTC)Reply

No infobox?

For the love of God, why is there not an infobox? People with short attention spans don't want to waste their precious time scrolling through a long, boring article to see where he was born and where he died and where he was educated and stuff. So I am once again asking: Where the fuck is the infobox? Albert Eisenstein (talk) 08:36, 17 June 2026 (UTC)Reply

I replied to you for another composer, and you could ask a bit more respectfully (as you did there). --Gerda Arendt (talk) 09:34, 17 June 2026 (UTC)Reply
