But the 20th C. composer I am *really* falling more in love with every day is Ralph Vaughan Williams. Two of his symphonies are currently in the CD-changer in my car, along with "Dona Nobis Pacem" and the "Mass in G-minor." A blog on RVW is coming soon, I'm sure!Daniel Martinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15980949721733826978noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34346296.post-90125677995792705422007-05-15T03:11:00.000-04:002007-05-15T03:11:00.000-04:00Dan,Another acceptable way to accomplish the same ...Dan,<BR/>Another acceptable way to accomplish the same without toggling is to type an "e" after the vowel otherwise published with an Umlaut.<BR/>Thus, Schoenberg.<BR/><BR/>Also, my bachelor's is awarded in Music Composition.

But that was the point.<BR/>BTW, one of my most favorite composers between the Schoenberg to Cage period was Barber.

Re: Umlaute, instead of hassling with Blogger’s settings, try changing your keyboard configuration to “German” (I toggle mine from English to German and back with Alt-Shift).
