MOZART WHEN A BOY.
Mozart was a horn musician, and he began to compose music and play when he was only five years old. Think of a little boy sitting down to a piano and playing pieces that his father thought so beautiful that they ought to be written down and preserved, to be played by other people that love music. But little Mozart did it, and his father copied whatever he played. Mozart would not allow anybody to interrupt him, or to make any noise in the room. In fact, nobody wanted to make any noise ; for be played so that everybody was only too anxious to listen to him. So fond of music was he that whenever his little toys were taken from one room to another, he always had something to play or sing so that he and whoever was with him might keep time to the music.
