Hi there! So you are a student studying composition?
Yes, one of my favorite composers was Harry Somers. What about you?
I am mostly familiar with the classical composers. I like Mozart.
Mozart is one of the greats. He started composing at the age of 5!
Yes, so impressive! Child prodigies always make me feel like I need to get my life in order. :-)
Many people don't realize Mozart wrote a lot of popular dance music. Of course dance was much different back then!
That's such a good point! "Dance music" has really changed in meaning over the decades. 
The noble dances bear little resemblance to today's popular dances. I would love to see Mozart doing the nae nae.
That would definitely be a sight worth seeing!
