Characters

- Mozart
, the leader of the band, coiner of the
interjection
"Shumblah!", and the only one to wear a pony tail due to the length of his red hair. The character is named after
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
.
- Beethoven
, the fattest boy of the lot who always has a
drumstick
either behind his ear (held like a pencil) or sticking out of his pocket. He has long black hair. The character is named after
Ludwig van Beethoven
.
- Chopin
, the keyboard player for the band, can be recognized by a strand of his brown hair that would always get into his face, but never bothered him. The character is named after
Frederic Chopin
.
- Verdi
, of
Italian
descent who lived with his family above a restaurant they own. The restaurant is called "La Traviata" after
the opera of the same name
. His hair appears to be black shaped into points that stick out using styling gel. The character is named after
Giuseppe Verdi
.
The band had a small
dog
named
Pimples
(Mozart's dog) and three girls who admired them. Their old-aged music teacher,
Professor Solfa
also made prominent appearances.
Blackie
, the antagonist, was the son of the president of
Col Records
(Col being the Spanish for
Cabbage
, and thereby the logo of the company). His hair style resembled an
eighth note
on its side.
