I'll concede he uses too many arpeggios though. :)
I always try and refer to it as orchestral music - seems a more accurate term.
Il Divo spring to mind.
Its funny you mention that - I feel the opposite to the extent where I fear and respect the form so much - I worry about the rest of my life going wrong if I attempt it!!
Have to admit - I hadn't heard of this guy but have really enjoyed looking round his output and work albeit now posthumously.
That wasn't actually what I meant - I was more alluding to the distribution of composition more than the creation of it.
