Wolfgang Mozart

Wolfgang Mozart is a famous Austrian composer. Mozart was born in 1756 in Saltsburg, Austria. His father, a violinist and a composer, noticed wonderful talent of his son and taught him how to play musical instruments and to compose.

Being 4 years old Mozart played the clavier. When he was 5 or 6 years old he started composing music. At the age of 8-9 Mozart created his first symphonies, and at the age of 10-11 his first creations for musical theatre.

When he was 6 years old his father decided to take him and her sister to the big cities of Europe. Two children gave concerts in Germany, Austria, France, England, Switzerland. The audience was delighted to see such a small boy playing the clavier.

When he was 14 he was invited to Italy. He could not imagine his life without music. By the age of 19 he was the author of ten major musical works.

At the age of 26 he moved from his native town to Vienna.

Though he didn’t have a great success as a composer in Vienna, Mozart wrote many songs, serenades, symphonies. Burdens of life, poverty and disease speeded up his death. He died at the age of 35.

The real fame came to Mozart only after his death. Many people now know and like his music.
