Mozart held a funeral for his pet starling
HERE’S THE INTERESTING PART
Why seek validation from critics when your bird can appreciate your genius? Mozart purchased a pet starling after discovering the bird could perfectly mimic a specific melody from his Piano Concerto No. 17. He loved the bird so deeply that when it died three years later, he organized an elaborate, solemn funeral for it, complete with a heavily veiled procession and a poem he wrote specifically for the bird.
