RE: what's life without a stomach. My husband had his stomach removed 2 years ago and is doing fine. Food with sugar he should stay away from as many food will cause dumping. You can make things with splenda or like I make banana bread and the such with 1/2 cup sugar and the same of splenda. Dairy products do not work at all for people without a stomach. Cheese is the exception as it binds.
In 1784 Haydn received a commission to write six symphonies from the directors of the Concert de la Loge Olympique, the largest concert-giving organization in Paris. In the Symphonies Nos. 82-87, known ever since as the Paris Symphonies, one senses a greater depth and breadth of musical substance.
As well as reviving interest in Bach, Mendelssohn also kept the work of Franz Schubert before the public. It was he who conducted the premiere of Schubert's Ninth Symphony, more than a decade after the composer's death. In all, Mendelssohn wrote five symphonies.
