BELATED

I missed Mozart's birthday.

It was yesterday.

Sorry.

Mozart is everywhere. Look around. Well, listen.

Look at that face. Blacken out the hair and you have someone who could easily slip on a guitar and do some riffs that would amaze.

Or perhaps he could be at the keyboard of a swing band.

He might be working next to John Adams at the LA Symphony. The co-composer in residence.

People knew he was onto something when he was alive but he lived for so short a time. Then he was forgotten.

Now, he is the default classical composer. No one touches him.

And so on.

We don't have to carry on about him. Just celebrate the man and the vision and the wonderful sounds.

Mozart. The Dude.
