Hi, Sarska,
You should be writing the cover notes for the new CDs that are constantly being issued of Smetana's works.
I won't say that he is one of my favourites because some passages in his music can be very pedestrian but, by careful programming of my CD player, he can certainly beat Wagner for dramatics. Wagner is all wind and fire while Smetana has this plus a subtlety that pleases the romantic ear.
Maybe you should add a page to your web site and promote Smetana and Januschek - two great but very different composers - and sell their CDs?
Regards
