    The composer had his movements and Calvin had his movements.

    So a mixture of Calvin and this composer at age 4 would be someone writing music while being toilet trained. I wonder how good that music would be!

    I learned to play Super Nintendo at the age of three. That’s some sort of accomplishment… I think…

    Mozart wrote a lot of symphonies, but the first 39 don’t get played.

    But I’ll be that Mozart never learned to tweet or take selfies.

    Now I’m wondering if Mozart was writing symphonies BEFORE he was toilet trained… that could get very weird very quickly.

    At least Calvin isn’t Marvin.

    No TV, movies, records, etc. – what else was there to do?

    So is the joke here that Calvin being toilet trained at age four is as impressive as this composer playing the piano at age three and writing his first symphony at age four?

    pfff; try inventing a transmogrifier; then come back and brag about a movement.

    To channel Tom Lehrer: It’s a sobering thought that when Mozart was my age he’d been dead for 32 years.

    If that were to be standard, most of us will be far behind the power curve.

    @Night-Gaunt49:I was rather good at it as far as I remember. Of course, sometimes my parents helped pass those dificcult levels.

    I have all 40 of Mozart’s symphonies on CD and I think they are all good. He wrote some music at a early age but i don’t believe they were his symphonies.

    Calvin should start lowering his expectations

    I saw Aladdin when I was 4…or maybe 3, I dunno. When was it released in 1992?
