Mozart

Hey, you and I both know that there was a dude named Mozart, but do we really establish that he actually DID anything, aside for writing 123 symphonies? Did he get up, night after night in the Bell Center and play Haydn's 83rd (oh wait -- he's Mozart!)

Where's the proof here? A movie called "Amadeus?"

Let's see the money. Show me Wolfgang. What, did he write the Brandenbug (sic) concertos? Or was that Ludwig, his elder brother?

Is it true that Daddy Mozart was one evening playing scales on his harpsichord, A-B-C-D-E-F, and then someone came to the door and interrupted him before he could play G? And then baby Mozart came all the way down the stairs in the middle of that night just to play the G, because he was so pissed off that Daddy couldn't play the scale right?

Is that true?

I want to see Mozart in the flesh. A painting will do.
