Beethoven vs Mozart: is genius labor or lightning?

BEETHOVEN vs MOZART go head to head — and every jab is rooted in real history.

BEETHOVEN

I fill sketchbooks with a hundred crossed-out lines to earn one immortal bar; music is fought for, not received.

MOZART

I wrote whole symphonies in my head at seven and set them down clean, as if taking dictation from something already finished.

BEETHOVEN

And that ease left you buried in a pauper's grave, while I, deaf and clawing at every measure, conquered silence itself.

MOZART

You conquered silence, Ludwig, but I was the silence you kept trying to fill.
