A Brief History of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart

[@AccordionandViolinlife]

Hi I am a violinist who just started taking piano lessons and bumped into your channel. You are very talented as a teacher and as a broadcaster. I am learning a lot from you. Thank YOU

[@juanxu1047]

Too bad she quit 😖

[@MarsLos10]

If I had the chance to meet one big composer, Mozart is the one. He's THE BEST. :D

[@lprincessaziz6341]

[@ABC-xj8cs]

[@dmpatel7026]

Mine is Paganini

[@trailagob]

just thank you.

[@alexscott1257]

I love your style in these videos! It's not often that I laugh out loud during history videos! I loved the way that you had towers for London and Paris and then a sausage on a fork for Munich! 😀

[@PianotvNet]

Everything you ever wanted to know about this child prodigy, including his inclination toward toilet humor.

[@septobus]

pianoTV *poot* I hope you make more of these in the future. It turned out really well!

[@halaalsheneity5067]

Fun fact:Mozart was writing his Lacrimosa on his deathbed but he died after he wrote the first 8 bars of it and then it was finished off by one of his pupils

[@marisinikatsouli2030]

I was expecting Salieri's name to be mentioned, because of the famous movie xD

[@marisinikatsouli2030]

exactly:)

[@b.quinchana]

@Somesh Narwade Amadeus. There are moie clips here on youtube. I suggest you check it out.

[@shaneculkin7124]

Well, the movie is highly fictional with the exception of the music. It a very clever take but entirely implausible since (for instance) the one who darkly commissioned the Requim was NOT Salieri.. In fact, that man has been identified and was a mediocre piano player and amateur composer who wanted to take credit for having written something so presumably lovely and had the money to do so as well. Again, extremely clever to make that person be Salieri. Also Salieri went completely mad by the end of his life and ANY claim he made at that time forward should simply be ignored. Mozart did have an infectious laugh apparently and I am very pleased that that was used so well in 'Amadeus'. Though, as I am to understand it, there was only made just one mention of his laugh by a contemporary and that is it. Superbly done. Perfectly cast. I love that movie. Thank you for reading. I wrote too much, I know :)

[@hydrolito]

What famous movie named Salien? I don't recall hearing of it.

[@shaneculkin7124]

@michelle trushell : WoW! Many thanks for that information. It is most likely true. I greatly appreciate you taking the time for me

[@lakewobegonesbest8725]

Thanks for your interesting programs. Erich from New Zealand

[@pavanchandaluri]

Thank you so much for the Playlists and over all content you made. History, general information, exercises, theory, techniques all in one place. Best channel on youtube. I can't thank you enough 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩

[@5owallace]

I love sharing your videos with my children for music appreciation. They're so much more interesting to watch than trying to get them to read a book (books definitely have their place). But for us, your videos are awesome! I only wish you omitted the "French" language for younger audiences. Keep up the great work!

[@pjjns7918]

Hi, I've been here two weeks now and decided I like it. You are a wealth of information. Thanks.

[@rodrigomarins273]

this channel is marvelous ! Thanks pianoTV . You are very nice !

[@hazelclaire8271]

your videos are the best omg. ive learned sm from them THANK YOUUU!!

[@thepianoplayer416]

A lot of Pop musicians look up to Mozart for inspiration partly for his framboyant lifestyle and partly as a freelance musician they can relate to. In the 18th century composers had steady employment with an upperclass patron or a church as a choirmaster or an organist. Mozart hated being bossed around.There was no mention of Mozart's sons becoming well-known musicians. Bach had 3 sons who became famous, particularly the last 2.Hayden's influence on Mozart is undisputed. Another less frequently mentioned name who was a famous French composer and a violin virtuoso who influenced Mozart was (Le Chevalier) St. George (being half Black). During Mozart's visit to Paris they supposedly met and after listening to a piece by St George, Mozart wrote a famous Symphony Concertante with a difficult passage taken from a piece by St. George.

[@richardbailey1993]

I love listening to this chick. She certainly knows her stuff and she's gorgeous ...wow!

[@mariomaurer2685]

You forgot about the funny fact that mozart was afraid of the trumpet but btw I love your vid and I learned a lot thanks

[@isasock2346]

Are you serious

[@mariomaurer2685]

Yeah he was extremely afraid of the trumpet that he fainted after hearing it. You could search it on google if you want proof.

[@isasock2346]

Oh my goodness I don't wanna laugh

[@lilbigrigw9904]

Outsider I use to deathly afraid of the trumpet and every time I heard on I would turn pale, panic and get sick

[@mfernandez5743]

He also supposedly hated the flute

[@1sevillana]

Thanks for this information... you’re good..

[@roklin1142]

Hi, I found out I've been so ignorant about these characters. But your videos have helped me greatly! Keep up the awesome work.

[@IOxyrinchus]

I would highly recommend a book called "the lives and times of the great composers" written by Michael Steen, it's an incredibly informative, and interesting book all about the lives of the great composers like Mozart, Beethoven, Haydn, Chopin, Liszt, Schubert etc. It's full of factual, sourced information about their lives. It also tells you abut things that happened at at the time like cultural changes and war. Very fascinating

[@sweettooth1940]

[@GPsgurl80]

I do enjoyed this vid. Mozart history is incredibly interesting, no matter how many times I hear it read about it. FYI: The pictures that are supposed to be Constanze and Wolfgang are actually Nannerl and Wolfgang.

[@Johnadams20760]

Hi Piano TV!I think you do a great job on this! You make this fun, and on top of that, I love Mozart, he is the most incredible musical genius ever. there are a few who are very super genius, but something about Mozart is just beyond ridiculously genius.I presume you play the piano, I am curious though, do you paly any additional insturments? I played the violin :)

[@mitchellmeyers8261]

Wolfgang is a badass name

[@vividedwards8909]

True

[@sekoe1er]

#Wolfgang 😎

[@maryhatcher-davis5076]

It was in Vienna, not Venice, where the Archbishop became upset with him.

[@OliviaB-q8t]

I was *not* expecting to learn that Mozart liked fart jokes! 😂

[@hydrolito]

Keyboard lesson could be on harpsichord and piano that type of computer existed there then.

[@swerve361]

I left the video cause i already knew a lot about Mozart but went back when i was like "wait, did she actually use a pic of wolfs in a gang?" which i thought was pretty funny. I ended up learning new things so i'm probably going to end subscribing if the other videos are the same.

That Salierie guy murdered him. I saw it in the movie. And he confessed at least twice, one was a priest, like the movie

[@stefansipl6736]

Nice video. Just the way you pronounced his name was funny... ;) As if he was the leader of a gang. ;)

[@tarionmarsden157]

there was a financial recession in Vienna in 1787

[@mfernandez5743]

The archbishop was actually in Vienna. His mother in law insisted Mozart sign a prenup, though his wife tore it up.

[@familyaccount4660]

I wonder how his parents named him...

[@gvasilas]

Let's not forget the big conspiracy theory that Mozart might have joined the Freemasons in order to get support for his financial difficulties, but ended up being killed by them when he wanted to get away from them... That's why people think Mozart put so many masonic references in the Magic Flute and also wrote masonic funeral music!! Just thought I'd mentioned it...

[@ciscobriano]

Isn’t it true Mozart learn the basic chords first ?? Please look around that’s what I remember learning in high school and college

[@fio692]

Salzburg is still a part of austria, Salzburg is a city and a province of austria, austria is not a new country. 🤗❤️

[@herrwagnerianer1739]

But during Mozart's lifetime, Salzburg did NOT belong to Austria, and the term "Austria" at that time had a different meaning. Legally, only the modern states of Upper and Lower Austria formed the Archduchy of Austria. All the other Habsburg dominions, such as Tyrol, Carinthia or Breisgau in the then Further Austria (which is today part of Switzerland, France and Baden-Württemberg), remained legally distinct estates within the Holy Roman Empire. The name of the Archduchy was often used to denote the Habsburgs (House Austria) and because of that, the entirety of the lands they ruled was referred to as "Austria" as well, but in legal terms, the different principalities remained distinct entities. It was only in 1804 and thus after Mozart's death that the Habsburgs legally united all their dominions into one state called "Austria", thus transferring the name of the Archduchy to the newly created Empire. One year later, in 1805, Salzburg became Austrian, in 1810 it became Bavarian and 1816 finally Austrian. While this video is not about politics, you started it, so I had to reply. ;-)
