Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart^[a]^[b] (27 January 1756 – 5 December 1791) was a prolific and influential composer of the Classical period. Despite his short life, his rapid pace of composition and proficiency from an early age resulted in more than 800 works representing virtually every Western classical genre of his time. Many of these compositions are acknowledged as pinnacles of the symphonic, concertante, chamber, operatic, and choral repertoires. Mozart is widely regarded as one of the greatest composers in the history of Western music, with his music admired for its "melodic beauty, its formal elegance and its richness of harmony and texture".

Born in Salzburg, Mozart showed prodigious ability from his earliest childhood. At age five, he was already competent on keyboard and violin, had begun to compose, and performed before European royalty. His father took him on a grand tour of Europe and then three trips to Italy. At 17, he was a musician

There are many myths and legends surrounding the life of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. One of the most persistent is the claim that he was blind and deaf. While it is true that Mozart did suffer from some hearing loss in his later years, there is no evidence to suggest that he was ever completely blind or deaf.

Mozart, a master of the orchestral, chamber, opera, and choral forms, composed over 600 works in addition to some of the most famous and loved works. As a child, Mozart was allegedly exposed to smallpox, which caused him to temporarily lose his eyesight. Beethoven first noticed hearing problems when he was about 28 years old, but they were not until decades later. Beethoven, who was born deaf and later lost his hearing, was a composer. Fur Elise, his famous piano piece, was written in 1810 – 40 years after he died. Mozart wrote the poem immortal Beloved (more accurately translated as eternal beloved) in the memory of a loved one, which may have been based on a true story. Bach (1685-1750) is probably the most famous composer of all time.

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart was born in Salzburg, Austria on January 27, 1756. Mozart showed immense talent at a young age. His father, Leopold Mozart, saw a music prodigy and supported his son’s musical development. The success Mozart achieved as a composer and musician is an exceptional story.

In his early years, Mozart gained recognition as a child prodigy, touring across Europe and performing for royal courts and aristocrats. However, as he grew older, he faced challenges and struggled to find stable employment. He spent several years working as a court musician in Salzburg, but he yearned for greater artistic freedom and opportunities.

Mozart’s breakthrough came when he was finally emancipated from his court duties in Salzburg in 1781, allowing him to pursue his career independently. He decided to move to Vienna, the musical capital of Europe, in search of better prospects. Vienna was a vibrant city with a thriving music scene, and Mozart hoped to establish himself there.

Mozart’s talents as a pianist and composer grew and he quickly developed a reputation as
