One of my favorite European classical Composer. I admire all of his work.
Let me make this article simple and will follow with a another detail article in future.

Born in Salzburg, Austria on Jan. 27, 1756; full name Johannes Chrysostomus Wolfgangus Gottlieb Mozart;
he was baptized as Johannes Chrysostomus Wolfgangus Theophilus Mozart. Mozart is named after his grandfather on his mother’s side and after the Saint on his date of birth, Johannes Chrysostomus.

Parents: Leopold Mozart – composer and violinist, concertmaster at the archiepiscopal court, and in 1763, vice-kapellmeister at Salzburg court; and Anna Maria Pertl, daughter of Wolfgang Nikolaus Pertl, an official from Sankt Gilgen

Sibling: Maria Anna (Nannerl) Mozart

Age 3: started to play the keyboard
Age 5: started composing minuets
Age 4: he played violine / piano very fluently
Age 7: he composed his first Symphony!!!!!!
Age 12: he composed a full scale Opera!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Such a great man world have ever seen.

Latest movie Amadeus(2002) brings his many of his life facts to light.

Small clip from the movie.

Music runs in his vain, notes are his breath, scales are his thought. his Opera, Symphony,

A composer who have never compared and may never born.
