Bottesini and the moristo

i was reading up on bottesini earlier and i found a page about bottesinis enemies, a mop called the moristo

http://www.bottesini.com/alife/gbmorist.html

"Even to this day, an international cartel called the Moristo, founded by Umberto, uses enormous world-wide economic and political power to sully the name of Bottesini, making it difficult for artists and scholars alike to record or publish anything by or about the Master."

i amazes me to think people would do this, does anyone know this to be true?

it could explain why i couldnt find any bottesini in virgin megastore

thank you!

Neil

I didn't have the energy to read any more of the guy's site, but I'm pretty firmly convinced that he's out of his skull.

It's one of the grand spoofs. Relax and enjoy it.
