It is the 250th anniversary of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. Wolfgang Mozart was born in 1756 in Salzburg, Austria. His musical talents revealed themselves at a tender age. Well before his teens father Leopold took him and his likewise gifted older sister Nannerl on several tours through Europe. Soon he became a widely known and admired child prodigy of an unsurpassed class of his own. Already at eight years old his first music was being published. It was the beginning of an astonishing career. The sheer amount of music he wrote is, with hindsight, incredible and of high quality. Amadeus must have written very fast to manage composing the over 600 works he left to posterity. His manuscripts hardly contain any deletions. Mozart’s versatility is impressive too. He wrote anything from simple canons for keyboard to large-scale symphonies and operas on a great variety of librettos.
