He is the seventh child of Anna Maria (née Pertl 1720–1778) from St. Gilgen and Leopold Mozart (1719–1787) from Augsburg. Five of their children die, only Wolf- gang and his older sister Maria Anna (1751–1829), the so-called Nannerl, survive. 1759 Father Mozart creates the first music notebook for his daughter. 1761 Wolfgang composes his first works. Since he still cannot write, the proud father documents them in Nannerl’s music notebook. 1762 First journey to the Elector in Munich, followed by a several months in Vienna.There the children play for the Empress Maria Theresia. The time of travelling which then starts amount to a third of Mozart’s life time. 1763–1766 The father shows his children to the world. The Great West-European Tour lasts three and a half years and takes the family through Germany and the Austrian Netherlands to Fran- ce, where they play a concert for Louis XV. Their journey continues across the Channel to England, to King George III. There Wolfgang composes his first Symphony K.16. On their way back they travel through the Netherlands, France and Switzerland. Wherever they play, the audience – no matter whether they are mighty persons or simple people, react with enthusiasm. 1767–1768 Presentation of Mozart’s first sing- spiel, Apollo et Hyacinthus, in Salzburg; journey to Vi- enna; Brno and Olomouc (today: Czech Republic). 1769–1771 Appointment of the 13-year-old Mozart to the (unsalaried) third concert master of the Salzburg Court Chapel. First journey of father and son to Italy, to Milan with numerous excur- sions to other towns. Commission to compose the first Milanese opera Mitridate, Re di Ponto. Admission to the Accademia Filarmonica di Bologna (Padre Martini) and award of the Order of the Golden Spur in Rome by the Pope. Second journey to Italy. Second opera commission for Milan, Ascanio in Alba. 1772–1775 Mozart becomes salaried concertmaster at the Salzburg Court Chapel. Third journey to Italy (Milan). Third opera commission and Debut of Lucio Silla. The prepa- rations for the opera La finta giardiniera take Wolfgang and Leopold to Munich in December 1774–March 1775. 1777–1778 Two-year-long travel to Paris, whe- re Wolfgang’s mother dies. On his way to Paris, Mozart fell in love with Aloysia Weber in Mann- heim. There he writes particularly touching works under the influence of Mannheim style. 1779–1780 Wolfgang wants to marry Aloysia – however, she consents to marry the actor Jose- ph Lange. Mozart turns back to Salzburg, where he is appointed court and cathedral organist. 1781 World premiere of Idomeneo in Munich. Mozart is called to Vienna by the Archbishop Col- loredo of Salzburg. Mozart no longer wants to work for him and is released from service with a kick in the ass. Mozart stays in Vienna and earns money by giving piano lessons and concerts. 1782 Premiere of the singspiel The Abduction from the Seraglio; Mozart marries Constanze We- ber, Aloysia’s sister. 1783 Last stay of Wolfgang (together with Con- stanze) in Salzburg. Mozart’s first son Raimund Le- opold lives only two months. When visiting Linz, he writes the Linz Symphony in a rush. 1784–1785 Mozart starts to keep a catalogue of all his works; he becomes father again (Carl Thomas dies in 1885 in Milan). Admission to the Masonic Lodge Zur Wohltätigkeit (To benevolence). 1786 World premiere of The Marriage of Figaro in Vienna. 1787 Mozart in Prague; Premiere of Don Giovanni. His father dies in Salzburg. 1788–1789 Mozart has financial problems and composes among others the piano Concert in D-major K. 537 (Coronation Concert), the Jupiter Symphony and later after his return from Berlin (April–June 1789), the Clarinet Quintet. 1790 Premiere of Così fan tutte in Vien- na. Journey to the coronation of the Em- peror Leopold II in Frankfurt. 1791 Premiere of the Magic Flute in Vi- enna and of La clemenza di Tito in Prague; his son Franz Xaver Wolfgang is born (he dies in 1844 in Karlsbad). Constanze un- dergoes treatments at the health resort of Baden near Vienna; Mozart writes the Requiem, is taken ill and dies on Decem- ber 5, at 1 o’clock in the morning at the age of 35 years in Vienna. He is laid out in the Saint Stephen‘s Cathedral, and buried in the St. Marx’ cemetery. Following Mozart in Europe

Mozart – A short biography1756 Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart is born on January 27 in Salzburg. He is the seventh child of Anna Maria (née Pertl 1720–1778) from St. Gilgen and Leopold Mozart (1719–1787) from Augsburg. Five of their children die, only Wolf-gang and his older sister Maria Anna (1751–1829), the so-called Nannerl, survive.

1759 Father Mozart creates the fi rst music notebook for his daughter.

1761 Wolfgang composes his fi rst works. Since he still cannot write, the proud father documents them in Nannerl’s music notebook.

1762 First journey to the Elector in Munich, followed by a several months in Vienna. There the children play for the Empress Maria Theresia. The time of travelling which then starts amount to a third of Mozart’s life time.

1763–1766 The father shows his children to the world. The Great West-European Tour lasts three and a half years and takes the family through Germany and the Austrian Netherlands to Fran-ce, where they play a concert for Louis XV. Their journey continues across the Channel to England, to King George III. There Wolfgang composes his fi rst Symphony K.16. On their way back they travel through the Netherlands, France and Switzerland. Wherever they play, the audience – no matter whether they are mighty persons or simple people, react with enthusiasm.

There he writes particularly touching works under the infl uence of Mannheim style. 1779–1780 Wolfgang wants to marry Aloysia – however, she consents to marry the actor Jose-ph Lange. Mozart turns back to Salzburg, where he is appointed court and cathedral organist.1781 World premiere of Idomeneo in Munich. Mozart is called to Vienna by the Archbishop Col-loredo of Salzburg. Mozart no longer wants to work for him and is released from service with a kick in the ass. Mozart stays in Vienna and earns money by giving piano lessons and concerts. 1782 Premiere of the singspiel The Abduction from the Seraglio; Mozart marries Constanze We-ber, Aloysia’s sister.1783 Last stay of Wolfgang (together with Con-stanze) in Salzburg.
