7/10... What does reading music have to do with anything? It was a bit too classical/opera based... It all revolved around 1 type of music. How worldly

I haven't a fecking clue what a crotchet, a gizmo, or a lower-optimax needs to go on a sheet of music... I mustn't be a music fan... ..Oh, and all music fans like opera, and clasic...

9/10 - Got the one about Hadyn wrong!

And yes, can read music. But out of practice so my fingers won't do what they're told any more!
