Mozartmania

Se cumplen 250 años del nacimiento de W.A. Mozart. Como dice un amigo, la música clásica me encanta. Lo que no entiendo bien son las letras:

When Mozart passed away, he was buried in a churchyard. A couple days later, the town drunk was walking through the cemetery and heard some strange noise coming from the area where Mozart was buried.

Terrified, the drunk ran and got the priest to come and listen to it. The priest bent close to the grave and heard some faint, unrecognizable music coming from the grave. Frightened, the priest ran and got the town magistrate.

When the magistrate arrived, he bent his earto the grave, listened for a moment, and said, "Ah, yes, that's Mozart's Ninth Symphony, being played backwards."

He listened a while longer, and said, "There's the Eighth Symphony, and it's backwards, too. Most puzzling."

So the magistrate kept listening; "There's the Seventh... the Sixth... the Fifth..."

Suddenly the realization of what was happening dawned on the magistrate; he stood up and announced to the crowd that had gathered in the cemetery, "My fellow citizens, there's nothing to worry about. It's just Mozart decomposing."

  1. Si quieren llegar a más, pueden ponerle a sus hijos el DVD "Baby Mozart" hecho por la Baby Einstein Co.... Así desde bebitos los chicos van asimilando la buena música... confieso que nuestra rutina para ir a dormir (de los chicos, obvio!) comienza con "baby Mozart" o "baby Van Gogh" o "baby Da Vinci"... están muy bien hechas!! (y la dueña y fundadora de baby Einstein hizo fortunas vendiendo a Disney la distribución!!!! en una muestra más de que educación, capitalismo y arte pueden ir de la mano...)
