Beethoven's Grave
The tour guide was finishing the tour at Beethoven's grave and told everyone that if they listened very carefully, they could hear actual music coming from the grave. Everyone immediately fell silent and, sure enough, symphony music could be distinctly heard coming from the ground although it sounded as if it were being played backwards. What could possibly explain this?

I'm not sure about this, but i think Mozart doesn't even have a grave. He was buried in a communal "fosse" ( dunno the word in english).
An adaptation of a joke, but works well, nice work.
ha ha ha very funny (sarcastically)
HA!
sort of got a half smile.
only problem is that composing music doesn't mean playing it.... (sorry, had to nit pick)
i decided the solution was that someone was sitting on the ground playing music backwards...
