Black History Month Honoree: JOSEPH BOULOGNE

_______________________________________________________________________________________________



Joseph Boulogne 
composed his first piece of music
at, approximately, age eight.

That would have been 1753

At that time,
If anyone called him
"The Black Mozart"
a common response
would have been
Who the hell is Mozart?

Mozart  was born
in 1756
