Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart

1756–1791

musicplaymasterypattern

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart was a Classical composer whose extraordinary musical gifts emerged almost preternaturally early—composing at five and performing before European royalty while still a child. Over his brief thirty-five years, he produced more than 800 works spanning virtually every genre of his era, from luminous operas like *The Marriage of Figaro* and *The Magic Flute* to the transcendent finality of his unfinished Requiem. His music marries crystalline formal mastery with an inexhaustible vitality that continues to sound startlingly immediate across centuries.
