I am in almost complete agreement with everyone's choices. However, I am
sure the worst crap of all you have all understandably repressed. Due to a
severe recent blow to my head I was forced to remember that there is,
infact, far more vile music than any thus far mentioned! John Rutter's
Requim and his Te Deum [pronounced Tedium] are simply the worst trash
possible. I was once sentenced to perform BOTH these nearly interchangable
losers on the same program under the baton of a nincompoop choral conductor.
We all tapped our feet and tried hard to not watch him. It's a shame we
couldn't have gone temporarily deaf, too.
