Salieri is one of the most underrated composer partly due to the hypothesis of Mozart assasination, which probably is not true.

Salieri is so underrated. He has his own style that makes his music charming and easy on the ear.

@mark60060 It was false at all!Salieri was a good man. devote to God, shy, kind and generous.When he was dying accused himself of mozart's assassination but he was delirant cos Mozart died for a venereous matter. This lie was invented later by people who always thought that Italians were assasins, poisoner etc...let you know that salieri was also the teacher of Beethoven

And also back in time it would be that salieri one , for he was more popular then mozart and had a royal job , at his prime he was one of the best in vienna .. but he was not as good as mozart

Salieri and mozart were actually friendly rivals.. you can see them having dinner together but when it comes to music they tried to beat each other at it all the time, the theory that this man killed mozart is completely stupid, and obviously salieri is repetitive and boring while mozart has tang,,, clearly the emporer salieri worked for has absolutely no ear whats so ever

Salieri was by no means a bad composer, but he tended to repeat the same riffs over and over again. Mozart would reprise his riffs, but he always teaked them or spiced them up each time, so you didn't get bored. Here, Salieri seems to be just adding the odd 7th or going from piano to forte every once in a while.

Poor Salieri was much maligned by the movie "Amadeus". Sure, he wasn't Mozart. Neither were any of his numerous contemporaries. There was only one Mozart. So? Their existence is certainly justified and some of their music is very beautiful.

Antonio Salieri: Truth or Fiction?
Who did ir first?
Salieri did it first, because "Der Rauchfangkehrer" was composed in 1781 and "Figaro" in 1786.
It's kinda similar to the ouvertyr to Figaro, don't you think? The opening whit strings and oboe . . . mhm?
Yes, the use of winds in piano to go into a powerful D in fortissimowith full orchestra (which Mozart also used in his overture) is very similar to the overture of "Figaro."
Why is Madame de Pompadur in the clip? :-P
Her painting reflects the costumes utlized in the opera, as well as nobility and wealth, two important elements of the work.
