Post subject: Mozart at an Early Age
Archived from groups: rec>music>opera (more info?)

At the age of two, Mozart could hear sounds and tell what pitch they
were. There is a story that he heard a pig oink and yelled "G-sharp!"
Someone duplicated the pitch on a piano, and discovered that it was
indeed G-sharp. - from the music section of www.odd-info.com
