" I wrote this so that in a few hundred years, when music becomes shitty, people will look back at this and say... How the fuck did he do this???" - Mozart.
Just for people's information, the "Compleat Mozart", a book listing all his works and a bit of info about each of them, it says this is a really a Contredanse and he wrote it on one of his travels on the back of a music concert pamphlet in 1765 :)
Oh, that's the music we can hear in the movie "Amadeus", at the beginning, when we see him playing harpsichord, then playing the same music at violin !
The movie Amadeus was stupid. He wasn't crazy, and didn't dis-respect royalty. Salieri didn't kill him, and he was far more intelligent than the movie portrayed.
well, we will never know that because we never met him and neither saw him on TV or something lol, just in portraits. Leave it to the imagination, maybe we will meet Mozart in person after we die
There were pleanty of accounts of him being a nice well rounded person... and none of him being crazy and acting like a moron around royalty... so thats pretty much the proof I take to say what I say about the movie being dumb. They could have made a much better movie based on the real mozart
Thank you so much for posting this! I've always wondered what was the piece the child Mozart played in Amadeus. Unbelievable that he was only 9 when he composed this. Genius is an understatement!
He composed from the age of 5 until 35 when he died, composing some 600 works.

Ok so it's in F, why does it sound like it's in E?

Historically informed tuning : )
Back in Mozart's time they used another frequency on the A. Almost a semi tone lower than the modern A=440Hz

lol one of the funniest Mozart's compositions, i mean "funny" in a good way. Was he really 9 when he composed this?
davlor86 3 years ago 2
Yup - he was 9. Too bad he died when he was 35. Imagine all the masterpieces he could have written even if he'd lived till 60.

Of course, I hope everybody know that ! But it's a shame that the movie didn't precise this point.

@notoncemoreagain The movie was based on a popular play that was loosely based on his life.
