Eddie Van Halen named his son after what classical composer?

Name one thing that rocks more than classical music ... I'll wait.
Fair enough, you probably named like 12 things. But still, classical music — and those that composed it — is pretty bad A. But you don't have to take my word for it.
Just ask Eddie Van Halen, guitar god, who dug a particular composer so much that he named his son after him. Which composer was it?

Correct Answer: Mozart
The answer is: Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. Wolfgang Van Halen is the son of Eddie Van Halen and actress Valerie Bertinelli. Musically gifted like his father, Wolfgang served as Van Halen's bassist from 2006 to 2020. In 2021 he released Mammoth WVH, the debut album of his own band. Eddie Van Halen was likewise named for a famous composer; his middle name Lodewijk is a nod to Beethoven.Source
