Mozart's first composition was at the age of 8. That's so hard for me to comprehend.
At eight Mozart wrote his first music which seems to me to be quite scary. The only thing at did at that age was look under toad stools for a fairy. When he played musical instruments I couldn’t do any music thing I wanted to be in the church choir but people said I couldn’t sing. They say he was a young prodigy. I didn’t even know what that means. He was at concerts and other things but I never took in those scenes. My family was very musical Both of my grandpas could play a horn. One tried to teach me to play trumpet but soon told me to go plow some corn. I wanted to be a musician I bought a guitar on a bet. They told me it would take time to learn and insured me that I shouldn’t fret. I’ve played a guitar for fifty years. It came pretty easy from the start. If I start bragging about my skill I’m reminded I’m not a Mozart.

Well you're closer to Mozart than I am...I played bass guitar when I was younger but lost the knack as I got older and have not played for a long time...
