That's amazing. Ho, and Einstein looks nothing like Grieg. The mustache is all wrong.

Yet another negative comment from GMG's resident psychopath.

Josquin des Prez

I think you need to lighten up a bit.

When I first glanced at the two pictures, I thought it was the same guy.  I did have something else on my mind, but still....

I am a light as can be given the circumstances of my existence. I even feel light enough to attempt humor every once in a while, thought it would appear i was not too successful at that.

Little known fact:  Although "The Addams Family Theme Song" has become one of Sibelius's most beloved compositions, he doubted that the world was ready for it and very nearly burned it late in life.  Fortunately he grabbed the manuscript of of the Eighth Symphony by mistake and tossed it into the fire instead.

There are girls that look like Justin Bieber, but are there any composers? I'm sure Beethoven's doted-upon nephew was rather Bieberisch.

I'm very fond of Schubert's Biebermeyer works.

And of course of the Rosary Sonatas for scordatura violin by HIF Bieber

Veit Bach-a baker who found his greatest pleasure in a little cittern which he took with him even into the mill and played while the grinding was going on. In this way he had a chance to have the rhythm drilled into him. And this was the beginning of a musical inclination in his descendants. JS Bach
