It was actually Charles de Lusse who composed 'Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star'. Mozart composed 12 variations based on it.
pfew, that's a french song actually....
You left out the best part Al: " it's the same tune as ba ba black sheep...the guilt killed him young."
Jane Taylor wrote "Twinkle..."
The Goering reference was to the blitz, heavily bombing East London which was not exactly a posh area. Al is forgetting that at 3 years old any musical composition is quite an achievement ..... and Mozart did go on to write some pretty great stuff when he was a bit older.

Did you know the British invented music as we know it today. Henry V was a pious King. He loved ecclesiastical music. He wanted to hear it 24 hrs a day in his palace residencies, so he had choristers sing in shifts of morning, day and nights. They had to be the very best singers, so he set up a Royal School of Music, which we know today. Any could apply. The best were given a full time musical and scholastic education. The money they earned were given to their families and improved the lives of sometimes those who came from poor families.,who not only acquired an all round education but a special trade as a trained musician, choirster or musical instrument maker.

Yes. I was a male choirboy for several years (onto past my voice breaking) promoted to head-chorister (paid very well), child of a modest family from a council-house. Actually felt quite elitist during that time not meaning snobbish but special. Choir embarked on RSM training but our choirmaster was killed in a tragic rail accident. Pity we never reached that greatness a village choir could only dream of but we were good. Still remember turning the music sheets ( for the subsequent organist) during a mid-week evening rehearsal of JsBach. Happy life enriching Days.

While experimenting with light, Einstein pushed a needle into his own eye and poked the nerve cluster at the back, just to see what would happen. He also stared at the Sun for so long he started seeing it's afterimage even when he closed his eyes, and had to spend 3 weeks in a dark room for it to fade. Not the smartest bloke IMHO. And as someone who studied maths and physics, I don't think he was even in the same league as people like Isaac Newton, Huygens, Ramanujan or Laplace, to be honest.
