If you had a time-travel machine and you had to shoot a famous composer
Who the heck would it be huh? You know, if you were really forced to. I'd probably kill beethoven then steal his material, then i'd make a cheese sandwich and eat it. What about you :confused:

If you kill Beethoven I'd travel back in time and kill you :p
If we went abck and killed a composer wouldn't that mean we'd mess up the time between us assinating him/her and therefore we might then not have genres such as punk, Britpop and Rock N Roll? As everyone needs some inspiration.

Those are mostly blues derived, which is further derived from African folk music. We wouldn't have very much in the way of progressive metal, though.

Or ska, ska came straight from Haydn. Who I also killed... :(

Why would you kill a composer? Surely Hitler or somebody is a better target

Percy Granger. That man produced some of the most stupid pieces of music with rediculous numbers of time changes in a piece lasting less than 2 minutes. Garghhhhh! As if playing Euphonium wasnt hard enough

Someone find out for me which composer inspired Britpop. That's the one I want to kill.

One of J.S. Bach's sons, doesn't matter which one. He fathered (legitimately) something like 60 children. At lot of his sons, gransons and great grandsons went to acheive success as composers themselves. Nobody would miss one two less.

Salisanques (1722-1767) Austian. Wank. But a looker.
Doesn't matter. Even if you shoot them before they compose anything, someone else will write their works and attribute it to them because we, in the future, know for a fact that the Moonlight Sonata was written by someone who chose to sign it off under the name Beethoven.
You can't change the future if you know what would happen if you didn't change it.
Heh.
You can't change the future if you know what would happen if you didn't change it.
Heh.
Sure you can, :fluffle:
Sure you can, :fluffle:
But then where would your knowledge have originated from? You just changed what happened. That place in the future when you learned about what it is you changed is different as a result of you having changed the events about which you learned.
Your knowledge would have had to change to make up for the change in history, and therefore you didn't actually change it because it was always like that.
Or something.
You know, the English Language really doesn't have enough tenses to deal with this sort of discussion.

On that view if everything changes wouldn't you then not exsit and therefore meaning you couldn't go back in time to kill the composer and therefore creating a paradox?

No, because the death of the composer doesn't necessarily have any influence on your birth. Even if he was supposedly some distant relation, it would simply transpire that your great, great, great grandfather might not quite have been who he claimed he was.

Good Point!
