On a trip to Vienna, a famous conductor visited Beethoven's grave to pay homage. Approaching the great composer's final resting place, he began to hear music at once familiar and yet strange. Upon reaching the grave, the conductor realized the music was Beethoven’s majestic Fifth Symphony - only it was being played backwards. Suddenly, the conductor spotted a ghostly apparition and cried out in shock, "Herr Beethoven! What are you doing here?" Beethoven's ghost turned, put a finger to its lips, and said, "Shhhh! I'm decomposing."
