Today is the birthday of Hector Berlioz in 1803.
In my adolescence I idolized Berlioz.
He was the Romantic artist, par excellence.
The heroic and gigantic side of Berlioz completely absorbed me.
Romeo and Juliette, Te Deum, Requiem: Works of Genius and Poetry.
Think of the exquisite literary taste, that made him also an excellent critic.
Faust, Shakespeare, Byron, Vergil and the incomparable poetry of Les Nuits D'Ete.
I even wrote a sonnet.
Hommage to Hector Berlioz.
Perhaps I can locate it.
