From Pan and his pipes to the Phonograph CHOW ch79

          Today I am going to talk about musicians from 1000AD-1883AD. Have you ever wondered who made the notes Do,Re,ME,Fa,So,La,Ti,and  Do, it was made by a monk named Guy. Then in 1700 the real good musicians came, such as Handel, whose father wanted him to be a lawyer but it didn't work Handel became a musician. Did you know that Handel and Bach were alive around the same time and they both went blind when they were old. Then there was Mozart the four year old "Boy Wonder." Then a father named Beethoven wanted son (Beethoven) to be a boy wonder so he made his son practice till he cried, in this boys old age he went deaf which gave him a bad temper. Last but not least there is Wagner he lived till 1883 he wasn't the best but everyone still loved him.

   Lastly, did you know that you are lucky to have the opportunity to listen to these musicians whenever you want back then it would of been a dream.
