Was Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart Deaf or Hearing Impaired?
No...Beethoven was deaf
ANSWER:
Not only was Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart not deaf, he was able to keep his hearing long after his death, and in the tomb of which he was laid to rest, many a monk could hear the strange a whooshing noise of wind that sounded more like a shush. Shhhhhh!, the monks would hear, particularly after a night of drinking their Trappist Ale and the merriment would get rather loud, even for monks who had taken a vow of silence. Shhhhhh! would be the loud and rattling noise that blew like an angry gust of wind through the catacombs of Mozart's tomb. Shhhhhhhh!
Finally, one day, one of those monks who'd lived in silence for twenty years since taking a vow of silence, decided to investigate. He began his decent down the dank and musty steps of the maze like catacombs, occasionally slipping and making all sorts of noise while falling down the dark steps below and he would hear: "Shhhhhhhh! The monk picked himself up, and trembling with fear continued down the dark steps until finally, at the end of a corner, he could see the flickering of candlelight dancing shadows across the wall. He quietly and carefully approached the room from where the candlelight emitted and peeked into the room to see what was really going on.
In the room where the candle flickered was the corpse of Mozart furiously and madly working away erasing notations on paper. The monk, who had not spoken a word in twenty years dropped his own candle and spontaneously declared: "Dear God in Heaven, it's you! Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart!! Wh-wh-what are you doing?" Mozart turned to face the monk with a scowl, placed his decaying finger up to his long since decayed lip and said: "Shhhh! I'm decomposing."
