Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart(27 January 1756 – 5 December 1791), was a prolific

and influential composer of the Classical era. He composed over 600 works, many

acknowledged as pinnacles of symphonic, concertante, chamber, piano, operatic,

and choral music. He is among the most enduringly popular of classical

composers.

Mozart showed prodigious ability from his earliest childhood in Salzburg.

Already competent on keyboard and violin, he composed from the age of five and

performed before European royalty; at 17 he was engaged as a court musician in

Salzburg, but grew restless and traveled in search of a better position, always

composing abundantly. While visiting Vienna in 1781, he was dismissed from his

Salzburg position. He chose to stay in the capital, where he achieved fame but

little financial security. During his final years in Vienna, he composed many of

his best-known symphonies, concertos, and operas, and portions of the Requiem,

which was largely unfinished at the time of Mozart's death. The circumstances of

his early death have been much mythologized. He was survived by his wife

Constanze and two sons.

Mozart learned voraciously from others, and developed a brilliance and

maturity of style that encompassed the light and graceful along with the dark

and passionate. His influence on subsequent Western art music is profound.

Beethoven wrote his own early compositions in the shadow of Mozart, of whom

Joseph Haydn wrote that "posterity will not see such a talent again in 100

years."
