12、n Empire. He was baptized the day after his birth at St. Rupert“s Cathedral. His father Leopold was from Augsburg. He was a minor composer, and an experienced teacher. In the year of Mozart“s birth, his father published a violin textbook, which achieved a great success. In the fourth year of his age

13、 his father, for a game as it were, began to teach him a few minutes and pieces at the clavier. He could play it faultlessly and with the greatest delicacy, and keeping exactly in time. At the age of five, he was already composing little pieces, which he played to his father who wrote them down. Whi

14、le Leopold was a devoted teacher to his children, there is evidence that Mozart was keen to progress beyond what he was taught.

During Mozart“s youth, his family made several European journeys in which he played at the Court in Munich, and at the Im

16、perial Court in Vienna. A long concert tour spanning three and a half years followed, taking the family to the courts of Munich, Paris, and London. During this trip, Mozart met a great number of musicians and acquainted himself with the works of other composers. These trips were often arduous. Trave

19、. The composer had a great number of friends and admirers in Salzburg. Despite these artistic successes, Mozart grew increasingly discontented with Salzburg and redoubled his efforts to find a position elsewhere. One reason was his low salary. In August 1777, Mozart resigned his Salzburg position an

20、d, on 23 September, ventured out once more in search of employment, with visits to Augsburg, Mannheim, Paris, and Munich.

22、at a possible post as an organist at Versailles, but Mozart was not interested in such an appointment. Mozart“s new career in Vienna began well.

34、u d“Amboise, then to the Loc Dieu Abbey and Chateau de Chambo-rd, then finally to the Ingres Museum in Montauban.
