"It is a sobering thought," Tom Lehrer once said, "that when Mozart was my age, he had been dead for two years."
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart...RIP
Tomorrow, Dec 5th, is the 212 th anaversary of his death. Only 35 years old.
Another thread recently got sidelined into a stupid comparison of Beethoven vs Mozart, as if it was a zero sum game where one had to be downgraded so as to elevate the other. Tomorrow we should remember him, without question the greatest natural musical genius that ever lived. Truly Amadeus.
