Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756–1791) was an Austrian composer born in Salzburg, a central figure of the Classical era who left more than 600 works including symphonies, operas and concertos.
In 18th-century Europe, the 'musical dice game' (Musikalisches Würfelspiel) was a fad: roll dice to chain written bars into procedurally generated music. 'KV 516f', attributed to Mozart, can produce about 1.3×10^29 pieces.

Piano keys were originally reversed from todays layout. In the era of Mozart and Beethoven, the wide keys were black and the narrow keys were white. This was likely because ivory, used for white keys, was more expensive than ebony used for black keys.
