WOLFGANG AMADEUS MOZART

Grid of Mozartian years
Each year is presented under these topics:
PERSONA
Interactions between Mozart and his close relations. We approach here correspondences and facts bringing us closer to the wonder's intimacy.
SOCIETÀ
Mozart and his contemporaries... We somewhat move away from the personal sight in order to highlight the society and its procession of vicissitudes. How human beings react to the politico-religious amalgam of the time.
IN DIRETTA
in diretta: Mozart's live performances. Anecdotes and audio samples.
KOECHEL
In 1862, Ludwig von Koechel indexed the Mozart's works chronology and assigned to each one of them a number called Koechel – i.e. K.384, K.622, etc. - This system, re-examined in 1947, is since a reference.
CON SPIRITO
con spirito: with spirit. Or Amadeus and the spiritual aspect. Study of artistic and transcendental views.
