Born in Salzburg on 27 January 1756, died in Vienna on 5 December 1791; Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart was a composer. From 1763 his father Leopold toured Europe with him and his sister; on the journey to England, where he met Johann Christian Bach, he wrote his first symphonies in 1764. In 1781 he left the service of the Archbishop of Salzburg and began an independent career in Vienna; he married Constanze Weber and wrote “Die Entführung aus dem Serail” in 1782. With the librettist Lorenzo Da Ponte he created “Le nozze di Figaro” (1786), “Don Giovanni” (1787) and “Cosi fan tutte” (1790), and in the last year of his life “Die Zauberflöte” and the Requiem, which remained unfinished.
