Beethoven
When Beethoven passed away, he was buried in a churchyard. Soon after that, the town drunk was walking through the cemetery, and he heard some strange noises coming from the area where Beethoven was buried.
No one else was around there any longer, and the drunk was scared. He went to get the priest to come and listen to the sounds. The priest bent down close to the grave, and he heard some faint, unrecognizable music coming from there! That also frightened the priest so he ran to get the town magistrate to investigate this. When the magistrate arrived, he bent his ear close, listened for a short while, and he said, “Ah, yes, that’s Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony being played backwards!” He continued to listen closely, and later announced, “Now it’s his Eighth Symphony being played backwards.” That was extremely puzzling. The priest told some passersby out on the street about this, and as word spread, more and more people started to come to listen to the weird music. The magistrate also kept listening. Next. Beethoven’s Seventh Symphony was being played backwards... Then the Sixth... Then the Fifth... Suddenly, Eureka! What was happening dawned on the magistrate. He stood up and announced to the crowd, “My fellow citizens, there’s nothing to worry about. It’s just Beethoven decomposing!” |
