Between 1750-1820, two great composers dominated the Classical music era: Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and Ludwig van Beethoven. Both were child prodigies who played for European courts from a young age, with Mozart composing extensively in genres like symphonies and concertos from age 5. Beethoven later moved to Vienna to study under Mozart and was influenced by his work, though details of their relationship are uncertain. Both composers faced personal struggles later in life, with Mozart losing money and creating his final works like The Magic Flute and Requiem in his last year, while Beethoven began losing his hearing at age 26.

8. QUOTATIONS OF MOZART
The music is not in the notes, but in the silence between.”
“It is a mistake to think that the practice of my art has become
easy to me. I assure you, dear friend, no one has given so much care
to the study of composition as I. There is scarcely a famous master in
music whose works I have not frequently and diligently studied.

BEETHOVEN
