This giant of 18th century musical Icons has been heavily featured on my blog since it's inception here at unravelingmusicalmyths.blogspot.ca. Peruse the articles provided in the link below to discover the many fascinating facts, myths, tributes and legends of Western Classical Music's most influential composer - from Mozart's time spent touring Europe with his father as a young "wunderkind from Salzburg", to his struggle for Imperial support (and his placement amongst contemporary musicians), to his Opus Ultimatum in his exquisitely ethereal Requiem mass in d-minor, and re-discover the beauty, the mystery and the mystique of the legacy he left behind.
