How many strings does a standard violin have?

A standard violin has four strings, tuned in perfect fifths to the notes G, D, A, and E (from lowest to highest pitch), though some electric or specialized violins can have five or more. These four strings provide the ideal range and clarity for classical and most other musical styles, making the G-D-A-E setup the universal standard.

Who was the first president to be born a U.S. citizen?

Martin Van Buren, the 8th U.S. president (1837–1841), was the first to be born a citizen of the United States, rather than a British subject. Born on December 5, 1782, in Kinderhook, New York, he was the first president born after the Declaration of Independence in 1776. The first seven presidents were all born before the U.S. was an independent nation.

What were Moe Howard, Larry Fine and Curly Howard better known as?

Moe Howard, Larry Fine, and Curly Howard were best known as The Three Stooges. As a trio, they were a legendary American vaudeville and comedy act, best remembered for their nearly 200 short-subject films produced for Columbia Pictures between 1934 and 1958. While they had various line-ups (including brother Shemp Howard), the combination of Moe, Larry, and Curly is generally considered the most iconic and popular.

Who wrote "The Hunchback of Notre Dame"?

The Hunchback of Notre-Dame (French: Notre-Dame de Paris, lit. 'Our Lady of Paris', originally titled Notre-Dame de Paris. 1482) is a French Gothic novel by Victor Hugo, published in 1831. The title refers to the Notre-Dame Cathedral, which features prominently throughout the novel. It focuses on the unfortunate story of Quasimodo, the Romani street dancer Esmeralda, and Quasimodo's guardian the Archdeacon Claude Frollo in 15th-century Paris. All its elements—the Renaissance setting, impossible love affairs and marginalised characters—make the work a model of the literary themes of Romanticism.
