Mistakes in the composers

The song number 254, "Variations of Nel cor piu non mi sento" is wrongly attributed to Ludwig van Beethoven. It is actually written by Niccolo Paganini.

gollark: Anyway: firstly, I cannot actually solder, and secondly it uses USB-C.
gollark: The touchscreen decided to start being annoying, so it's *effectively* dead.
gollark: Hmm. I suppose if I can't make anything else work I can probably get an adapter for a mouse.
gollark: I might have, but I think that still has a prompt on the device, and I'd need to enter the decryption key on screen, as far as I know.
