Mozart is a musician of the classical era born on January 27, 1756 in Salzburg, Austria. His father, whose name is Léopold, was the author of a famous violin manual. His father strongly influenced Mozart's love of music and so he began learning to play the harp at the age of 3. At age 5, he even started composing his own musical chords. Although he was far from producing great works, he met many popular composers across Europe. And he even published his first work at the age of 10. He even wrote a one-act drama. It wasn't until Mozart was 13 that his career really began to take off. He was offered the opportunity to go to Italy and experience all kinds of musical adventures. Mozart of course accepted and he and his father left for Italy! In Verona, Mozart was subjected to rigorous testing and was then asked to write an opera for an upcoming carnival. Mozart of course agreed but the carnival did not take place for a while. So, Mozart continued to travel and even got to hear Gregorio Allegri's Miserere from the Sistine Choir (he even memorized it somehow). After their arrival in Milan, Mozart began work on his opera Mitridate, rè di Ponto ("Mithradates, King of Pontus"). After 14 months away from home, Mozart had finally performed the opera he was composing. Which, as you can imagine, was a success. With his foot in the door and his future set, Mozart was able to return home to Salzburg. But it didn't stop there; Mozart visited Italy twice, his last visit ending in 1773. All included successful compositions by the very young Mozart. But Mozart couldn't continue wiring operas in Italy forever, so his father began taking him to Vienna where Mozart began composing symphonies. But he was... middle of paper...... the greatest works were done. In 1787, he produced his greatest work, an opera called "Don Giovanni", which would inspire many famous composers in the future. Mozart had to write the opera for a city called Prague. He played it and needless to say, they loved it. For the rest of his life, Mozart continued to write music for the German region, but everything began to fail. In 1789 he performed "Die Zauberflöte", which was considered his last major work until he fell ill in November 1781. He managed to hold out until he was hospitalized in early December and died on 5 of the same month. . Just 7 years after his father, Mozart's death did not go unnoticed, as he of course had many fans. Many called him the greatest composer of the era, and indeed, his compositions continue to be performed to this day. But not as much.
