and

Wolfgang

Amadeus

Mozart

(1756–1791)

The great Austrian composer, conductor, representative of the Vienna Classical School of Music. During his very short life, he wrote more than 600 pieces of music, the first of which were written in early childhood.

Some of Mozart's operas remained unfinished, since the difficult financial situation of the family forced the composer to devote a lot of time to various part-time jobs.
Mozart's piano concerts were held in aristocratic circles, the musician himself was forced to write plays, waltzes to order, and teach.

The creativity of Mozart in the following years is striking in its fruitfulness along with skill. The famous operas The Marriage of Figaro, Don Juan (both operas written together with the poet Lorenzo da Ponte) by the composer Mozart are staged in several cities.
For Mozart, the works of that time were extremely successful. "The Magic Flute", "Mercy of Titus" - these operas were written quickly, but very high quality, expressive, with beautiful shades. The famous Mass "Requiem" was never completed by Mozart. The work was finished by a student of the composer - Süsmayer.

(1770–1827)

The great German composer, pianist and conductor, representative of the musical direction "Viennese classicism".
In his last works, shades of romanticism can be traced.
Having lost his hearing at the age of 27, Ludwig van Beethoven continued to create and write in all genres of music of his time.

After the death of his mother in 1787, he took over the material responsibilities of the family. Ludwig Beethoven began to play in the orchestra, listen to university lectures.
Accidentally bumping into Haydn in Bonn, Beethoven decides to
take lessons from him. For this he moves to Vienna. Already at this stage, after listening to one of Beethoven's improvisations, the great Mozart said: "He will make everyone talk about himself!"

Rude, proud in public, the composer was very open and friendly towards friends. Beethoven's work in the following years was filled with new works: First, Second Symphonies, "The Creation of Prometheus", "Christ on the Mount of Olives".

Haydn briefly noted that Beethoven's music was dark and strange. However, in those years, the virtuoso playing the piano brought Ludwig his first glory. Beethoven's works differ from the classical harpsichord playing. In the same place, in Vienna, the future famous compositions were written: "Moonlight Sonata" by Beethoven, "Pathetique Sonata".
