Experts
consider Mozart to be the most sheerly musical composer who ever lived. He had the single-mindedness of genius. Mozart seemed born to create music. From age
four until 35 he hardly had a day’s rest. The sheer beauty, perfection, and
profundity of his music continues to astonish and delight.
He is regarded as one of the greatest musical dramatists. Figaro set the model for all comic opera of the future. Mozart made comic figures for the first time in opera. This expressed Mozart's own love of life. Yet, the masterpiece Don Giovanni was composed after his father's death, a time of sorrow and decline. His final opera, one of the greatest modern German operas, was The Magic Flute. A testament to the brotherhood of man, it is a combination of morals, magic and fairy tale.
