Happy Birthday Wolfgang!

Yeah, I put Wolfgang there to trick you, but I did it for a good reason. Today is Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's birthday. In case you are drawing a blank, read this.

I discovered ole Wolfie back in high school when a sadistic teacher made us do a book report and for some reason I randomly picked up a book about the composer. I tore through the book and discovered that this was one messed up guy...just like me in high school, except I wasn't an amazing composer, or brilliant, or amazing.

He lived a tortured life that ended tragically before he could finish what in my opinion, is his most amazing work. The Requiem, a tortured, amazing music odyssey through musical genius. Anyway, I thought I would say happy birthday to my favorite composer and give you a chance to listen to some of his amazing music. Happy Birthday Wolfie!

Enjoy. :)
