The world
celebrates the 250th Anniversary of the birth of Wolfgang Amadeus
Mozart, the most famous Austrian of all time, in 2006. Music
lovers from all over will travel to Austria to attend special
celebrations, concert and opera performances, and to visit his
birthplace in Salzburg. The last 10 years of his musical career were
spent in Vienna, where he died at the young age of 35, at 1 am on
December 5, 1791, while writing the Requiem.
Mozart enjoyed a
brilliant and prolific career, having written an unbelievable 626
works, the first at the age of 5. In addition to the many operas for
which Mozart is best known, he penned dozens of symphonies and more
than a dozen masses, including the Coronation Mass, and his most
moving piece, the Requiem, which was finished after his death by his
pupil Franz Xaver Süssmayr.
