It’s rare that one has access to as much collective wisdom as is found here at the RBC. If you have any advice for me, please be so kind as to deposit a note herein:

Please be kind. I don’t think I could Handel the mental Strauss — or my composer, for that matter — if you all were mean. Lay Orff the unnecessary personal attacks.
Oh, good Grieg.
I feel like Haydn from the oncoming deluge of puns …
Should I make a Liszt?
This post should go straight to the Chopin block.
Or we’ll be unRavelled by the puns.
Indeed. A few of the puns will be OK, but Mozart any good.
Kodaly make a suggestion?
Instead of a Bachs, you could use a Cage.
Offenbaches work better. And you don’t go Messiaen with what works.
Speaking of messiaen (getting down in the mud…)
I don’t think you people should Beethoven your puns, at least not in public.
You need to relax. Eat a nice dessert, or maybe get some exercise.
Have some mousse, or go ski.
You tell ’em, man!
As they say in Jamaica,
“Shoo, mon.”
Don’t stop, readers: here is a gold mine of raw material:

No time to comment on this now, but don’t worry, for as Scharzenegger said “I’ll be Bach”.
Scharzenegger? You seem to be thinking of a different Arnold. The one who prefers to be Bax.
I’d love to make a Beethoven joke, but I can’t here.

Sorry to pun and run, but I’m rather bizet this morning…
To be Franck, it sounds like you’re rushed off your feet; I insist you go re Couperin bed, and I will Bruckner refusal. Go Borodin under the covers, and Donizetti alarm clock. Otherwise, you might get Des Prez‘d. Then, take a day off - wander through the Mahler something.
Unless economic pressures won’t let you - for example, if you’re living Hindemith.
So many Weisscracks. Don’t you get writer’s Bloch? Ibert you had some inspiration. Also, some of those were cheesy, so you get the Korngold award. Now, I Pärt.
Warren Terra has been relentless in this comment thread. And it Berlioz acceptable to begin with.
You Janacek this thread more often? If we Telemann (you) how to conduct himself, do not dismiss our well-intentioned guidance as besotted Bartok. What sort of a Goun(od) Offenbachs the counsel of his/her friends?
