I keep getting Mozart and Haydn mixed up

Which one is it that wrote 100 symphonies? Which one ends every musical phrase with: pom pom pa dah?

The B guys are easy: Brahms puts you to sleep, Beethoven wakes you up at the latest with the scherzo.

Hardly surprising: To all intents and purposes, to the normal listener without a PhD in either Mozartmetry and/or Haydnology, they are virtually indistinguishable. :prof:

Probably both. :prof:

On second thought, I think Mozart uses more "tiddly-pom"s. :ask:

What's that one I like? Oh, aye - Bachenhandel. He's good. I like his Matthew Messiah. :tup:
Pray, do not mock me: I am a very foolish fond old man; And, to deal plainly, I fear I am not in my perfect mind.

Blah blah blah blah blah!

I like Boris CarlOrff's Italian/Irish oratorio "Carmine O'Burana"
