Young People Concert - Mozart: The trials of a teenage prodigy in Italy


Introduction
Mozart: the whole world knows his name, a musical genius, pianist, violinist and composer. Following his death at the age of 35, he bequeathed to humanity some of the greatest masterpieces in music.
However, few people know much about his childhood or adolescence: years of endless travelling, during which Léopold (Wolfgang’s father) showed his prodigious son off to prominent figures across Europe.
But these travels also had a significant influence on Mozart’s artistic development, especially this famous first trip to Italy – then the global centre of music – where he met many of the great artists of the era.
This concert will be an opportunity to discover some of the major works composed by the teenage Mozart, accompanied by fascinating and often juicy travel stories!
