@JoshBIG85 The piece at that time is Mozart's Mass in C minor, movement 1. Here's a performance: youtube.com/watch?v=ds89oQccd4

Anyone knows which is the piece of 1:10? It's divine for me! D: I want the full piece. Thanks!

@MrDeathslayerr it is right after de Mascarede scene. When Mozart makes fun of Salieri at the party.

--> Which is seen as a symbol of Mozarts respect for Salieri.

Salieri didn´t suck. He was actually preferred ahead of Mozart on many occations. Like in 1781 when both Mozart and Salieri applied to be the music teacher of Princess Elisabeth of Württemberg, and Salieri was selected instead because of his reputation as a singing teacher. And despite the this movie trying to portrait them as rivals, they were actually friends, and good colleagues. Mozart wrote in his last letter to his wife how he loved to see Salieri´s expressions during The Magic Flute.

what is the song at 0:55?

What is the name of the third song? Thanks beforehand : )
The fascinating thing about this film is that only Salieri and Mozart have got this gift (note Stanzerl's reaction: "Is it not good?"). Salieri's suffering comes from the fact that he is gifted enough to understand Mozart's genius but is not gifted enough to compose as well.
Just watch his facial expression when flipping through the manuscripts. It says it all: admiration, envy, self-pity ... brilliantly acted. The choise of Mozart's works for this scene is truly inspired, too.

F. Murray Abraham's facial expressions while viewing the music were priceless and Academy award winning ... great acting without uttering a single word. Only a few actors in the world could pull that off
