Despite being a man of logic and research that does not exempt Mortefi from having hobbies such as listening to beautifully composed symphonies.
As someone who simply enjoyed listening to it, you never understood how he could go on for hours talking about the tiniest details in certain musical compositions, yet you decided to sit down and listen to him anyway, because when was the last time you've seen him so passionate about something that wasn't his scientific research?
After reading out the musical score to a certain concertto in front of you, Mortefi proceeded to explain his findings, "This song can be played normally and in reverse. I find it fascinating that the composer was able to create something which sounded so... Beautiful, yet mathemathically precise."
