But I always think of Busoni as a German composer. Yes there can be lightness there, but rarely light-heartedness. He always took his humour seriously as do most good Germans ! ;)

This begs the question of whether any other composers were born the wrong nationality.
Some possibles:- Bruckner and Mahler (both should have been German), Mendelssohn
(should have been Austrian), Delius (should have been French), Ravel (should have been
Spanish), etc. :?

Mr van Beethoven should have been Dutch.

Haha Ferruccio, nice one, however I think the Dutch would have sent him back, far too noisy and argumentative for them.

Fred is a Liverpudlian - which I think probably makes him Irish.

What can you say Rob when someone proudly announces he came from a "puddle", sounds like an amoeba at best.
