When a friend of Gioacchino Rossini (1792-1868) came to visit this famous opera composer, he found him, as usual - playing the piano.
Rossini's friend, who was a conductor, was surprised when he saw that on the piano was the score of Wagner's opera "Tannhauser", but turned upside down.
"Maestro, how is it that you play with the notes turned upside down," asked the conductor.
"I tried it in another way, but it sounded terrible. Now I have turned them upside down. This way it is much bearable! ", cheerfully replied Rossini.
