    15. The Mozart Effect

    Mozart was very much in awe of Haydn, and often invited him to his concerts. Haydn reciprocated and was similarly very fond of the young prodigy. So fond, in fact, that the music played at Haydn's funeral was Mozart's Requiem, written just a few years before his death.
