If you ever feel bad about procrastinating, just remember that Mozart wrote the overture to Don Giovanni on the day of the premiere...

I'm Japanese and I'm not good at English so I use a translator ...
This is my favorite song from Mozart! My heart dances without permission!!

What a genius Mozart was. He was only 35 when he died, I've often wondered what he would have gone on to compose had he lived another, say, 30 years. Astonishing how much great music he wrote in such a short space of time.

"Does it not seem as if Mozart's works become fresher and fresher the oftener we hear them?"

Opening of Trading Places, one of my favorites. Mozart was perfection.

probably my favorite overture of all time, in my 3rd favorite opera. Mozart was a beast and I don't know if I will ever have another favorite composer from this

[noirjacques]

Very hard for me not to smile and think of Randolph and Mortimer Duke when I hear this!❤

Can y’all imagine what other masterpieces Mozart would have made if he was alive for longer

[BrassBoy-otsy]

This is one of the sounds of my childhood. As a child, I grew up surrounded by classical music, and I shall always love it!

[SuperBizzle]

Mozart is eternal its simple and yet so complicted as a piece of music its just so Mozart

[SophisticatedLunatic]

When Johannes Brahms heard this as a teenager, he said: "I have never heard anything like this! It's divine!" I, too, heard this and listened to this as a teenager. Now, in the old, lofty age of 20, I'm still listening and thinking it's absolutely divine. Amen.

80s music is the best!
If you know what I mean...

I first heard this when I was 5 years old. Last time I heard it performed in a concert hall was in Graz, Austria. This is one of the finest pieces by Mozart, whom I consider to be the greatest genius of all the great composers.

[brianbernstein]

"The Marriage of Figaro" wasn't the original name, Mozart actually wanted to go with "Winthorp's morning shave"

[haleycarlock]

He’s definitely one of my favorite classical composers. Him and Beethoven are just amazing 💕

Mozart is truly a genius... the harmony and flow of this piece is just so wonderful. AND he wrote it in such limited time... I almost can't believe it - but then again, he IS Mozart after all XD
