Holy. Shit. Mozart.

Mozart the Freemason.

From the book description: "Mozart constructed his Masonic compositions by creating auditory correspondences to the symbols present in the rituals, choosing keys and tempos that transpose their content into harmony. His understanding of the use of symbol allowed him to create music that would lead the listener into a harmony that transcended earthly existence."

Fucking brilliant.

Have you not heard the rumor that his death involved other masons upset at his "revealing too much of Masonic secrets" in The Magic Flute?

I had, in fact, never heard that rumour. I don't know, though, I could certainly see it.

His death was scary enough, as it stands.

Just as the Morgan affair, John Smith, and Mozart, those are just vicious rumors designed to bring undo fear about the Freemasons, we wouldn't be foolish enough to let our hits be traced back to us, remember we do rule the world, LOL.

The Illuminati should have had his back. *nods*
