I totally agree with Moooo53! I am so sick of "songs" (I use that term loosely) in the malls like, "Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree," "I'll Have a Blue Christmas," etc. etc., ad nausem. That is not what Christmas is about, folks.

[MrMrmike5]

Im sorry Mozart, your a genius of unparalleled proportions but Leroy Anderson got you beat when it comes to sleigh rides...

[Moooo53]

I'd rather have THIS piped in to every mall during Christmas than the same crap that's played each year. And I mean CRAP

[Dodo251]

@Moooo53 Oh, I'm 100% with you. I'm getting sick and tired of Mariah Carey and Freddie Mercury. The latter I respect, but what's enough is enough.

[nickburton100]

@Moooo53 Yes I agree.

[spyben3]

[xCinderpeltx]

i hav to play this for orchestra and a sleigh ride by leroy anderson too i'm in 6th grade

[broadwayloverny10]

I have to play this in orchestra for our christmas songs along with christmas rocks at the pops part of Vivaldi's 4 season (winter) and Sleigh ride (the other one). This one is pretty simple compared to the others. It does have that very classical sound to it. I like the baroque period better though.

[daytonmlivingston]

This is Wolfgang. There is a deffinite composing style difference between them. Leopold's music is still Baroque sounding, Wolfgang's is more into the Classical period style.

[timothyj1966]

@daytonmlivingston AGREED! Merry Christmas

[P14N157cat]

I played this with the niners at my school :)

I kind of like it, but it has the most boring cello part I have ever played! 

[purebldcullenvamp]

urgh this song as a solo for clarinet

[iiVLauraVii]

im playing this song on flute!! :)

[Pierinopasquotti]

In qualsiasi occasione Mozart supera tutti gli altri musicisti. Mi correggo: più che superarli, corre proprio da solo!

[linchris1797]

this is indeed Mozart the son ! his father's version is no match.

this is such a dance music, i am surprised that there's no ballet made for this brillant piece

[kidznewz127]

@Javin93:

Hey little love, this piece is exactly composed by Mozart the Son, not Mozart the Father :D

[Javin93]

This was written by Wolfgang's father Leopold

[LifeJuice90]

It is commonly mistaken as a piece by Leopold because Leopold wrote a piece called Divertimento in F major which is commonly called Musical Sleigh Ride.

This song Die Schlittenfahrt (The Sleigh Ride) is popular name for one of Mozart's Three German Dances.

[Tonia1985]

No, it's the father Leopold Mozart!
