to Play Haydn and Mozart were great friends When either had composed a masterpiece the other was invited to the house of the composer to enjoy the first sweetness It chanced to be Haydns turn and Mozart came full of expectation Contrary to custom Haydn invited his guest to give his interpreta tion of the theme instead of playing it over himself Much pleased at the com pliment Mozart played brilliantly for the work was beautiful and his musi cians soul v as stirred Suddenly he halted and looked across the piano at his friend Theres a mistake here he said A passage Avritten for three hands would be impossible for a soloist Of course those notes must come out Oh said Haydn quietly I can play it Mozart laughed My friend you have not three hands Perhaps not answered Haydn Nevertheless I contend that I can play the passage I would net have writtcn it otherwise A challenge cried Mozart Trove your word And he yielded his place at the piano His excitement rose as Haydn reach ed the disputed passage when to his amazement the composer brought his nose to the keyboard and the notes rang out clear and true Now is the time to take a spring tonic to purify the blood
