OTD in 1809, with Napoleon attacking Vienna, a French officer came to Franz Joseph Haydn's home to see the famed but frail composer. The officer sang the aria from Haydn's masterpiece "The Creation." Both moved, they "parted amidst the warmest tears." Haydn died 2 weeks later. https://t.co/Kts2ihAexd — PolitiTweet.org
