Not sure how young 35 was in the 18th century?
Now George Gershwin at 38 in the 20th century, that was a shocker.
I suppose I was looking at it more as 'too soon' rather than 'too young'. In terms of where they were and what they had to offer.
Chris Cornell would have been too young to die, at age 52, but musically you can argue his prime was behind him. Which I wouldn't say for Mozart. Or the others I have put forward. I also avoided musicians that have been replaced in their bands, for that reason.
