Nice. Schubert was Austrian but I think it counts.
Also, it just occurred to me that Rammstein’s “Dalai Lama” is an adaptation of the same story (originally a poem by J.W. Goethe).
Schubert was quite the musical gangster BTW. He wrote the Erlkönig at 18, and despite only living to 31, he composed some 1,500 works and managed to gain enough fame to be buried next to Beethoven. His Mass No. 2 in G Major is one of my favorite pieces. It’s short and sweet (only 22 minutes) but full of bravura, dramatic soli, and the Credo has a violin riff that wouldn’t feel out of place in a heavy metal show.
It seems like a flavour of the rubber duck method; by trying to explain it to a third party, you think about it in a different way and find a solution.
Trust me bro(ette): Rubber duck is the SHIT. I don’t even program save for a few rare instances, but any complex issue where you just know something is wrong but can’t quite put your finger on it? It works miracles. A lot better tbf if you are actually explaining it to someone who can ask questions, but any object that you can look at is a good substitute.
