Cash melody

April 8th, 2008

My ATM sings a song when it gives me money! And not just any song. After racking my brain for months, I finally figured out where I recognize the melody from: it’s the theme of the finale from Beethoven’s string quartet no.13 in B-flat, op.130 (or at least the first six notes of it…)

You can compare for yourself:
