Very mixed, with no one composer featuring very highly. Had I not gone to the Salzburg Mozartwoche in January, Mozart would, to my surprise, have been almost nowhere at all. Schoenberg's ranking is pleasing in one sense, but given I went to everything I could and it was his 150th anniversary year, it is slightly depressing in another. As with the operas, though, it has been good to hear such a variety of music, from Anderson to Žuraj. Rules for counting here.
