What's New: Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart

Barbara Krafft

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart doesn’t need a https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cVikZ8Oe_XA">pop song to make him cool. His music is performed around the world! We’ll hear some new releases of the Salzburg master on today’s What’s New.

Mozart was an Austrian composer "whose mastery of the whole range of contemporary instrumental and vocal forms—including the symphony, concerto, chamber music, and especially the opera—was unchallenged in his own time and perhaps in any other."

He was born and baptised on January 27, 1756 "Johannes Chrysostomus Wolfgangus Theophilus Mozart."
