Is it true that Mozart kept a pet starling in Vienna that sang a phrase from his piano concerto in G major?
Yes. A reference article on Mozart's starling states that Mozart kept the bird as a pet for about three years and that the tune he recorded in his expense book closely matches the opening bars of the third movement of his Piano Concerto No. 17 in G, K. 453.
