    Iirc, Tchaikovsky wrote his 1812 Overture rather quickly to commemorate the defense of Russia against Napoleon and wasn’t too thrilled with it himself. I believe he called it noisy and without artistry, but I’m prone to collecting myths, so please do check my work.

      Is “prone to collecting myths” a turn of phrase? I’ve never heard it before, but it goes hard imho. Makes me wanna build a ttrpg encounter around it.
