Happy Birthday Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart!
I will play his five violin concertos as performed by Itzhak Perlman in tribute.

Then cap it off with the 41st Symphony. :toast:

2. Thanks for the reminder.
I'll play a couple of his piano sonatas on my fake piano (Casio) and maybe listen to the Linz and A Major Symphonies.

5. Happy 248th Birthday Wolfie!
One of my favorite holidays. I "celebrate" it every year.

The 5 concertos w/Itzhak Perlman & Pinchas Zuckerman on CBS Masterworks is one of my favorite recordings too.

Think I'll listen to the Mass in C Minor, followed by the Sinfonia Concertante in E flat major.

Then I gotta watch Amadeus for the hundredth time.

In two years it will be his 250th. He doesn't look a day over 240. ;)

9. well he's been dead since 1791
and I've performed his Requiem about 212 times. Very Fitting. :)

Happy Birthday to one of the most intellectual composers to ever live.

10. You Mozart!
"You Mozart are a God and do not know it." Alexander Pushkin.

I will listen to 'Sinfonia Concertante For Viola and Violin in E-Flat'.

My grand daughter and I went to a live performance of this beautiful music last fall. My grand daughter said "Thank you Grampa"

I say "Thank you Mozart!" Happy birthday where ever you may be.
