There's a movie called Mozart sister. At the ending before the credits there's a caption that reads "she lived devotedly to her father, died poor and blind" After I read that I was like omg that's terrible. But glad she didn't die in poverty after hearing this video.

The more I think about it, the Mozarts were the original Jacksons

The Mozart family wasn't perfect but definitely very interesting and close one!

8:18 only 20% of the people were married during Mozart’s time!? That’s shocking!
