PRINCE OF MUSIC AND CRYSTAL

There was a child who at the age of seven was the center of all eyes and applause. Princes and music lovers strove to touch their hands, or to hear a word or see him smile.

He could play the harpsichord with his eyes closed, like playing, but always producing the most beautiful melodies.

They say he was like a little god, made of laughter and music, of crystal and poetry, of kind and playful spirit.

They say that his soul and his hands flew over the keyboard like never before and that music, once heard, could not be forgotten.

The boy's name was Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, and he had been a student of his father, a musician who, when he discovered that little genius, abandoned his dreams as a composer and understood that the little one was worthy of the best.

But not everything in Mozart's life was easy. In a time when the musicians were almost servants of the nobles in their castles, some empress whose name we do not want to remember, decided to make war.

That woman sent a statement to their castles and properties in which she said:

"I order precautions to be taken against a family named Mozart, especially against a certain Wolfgang Amadeus who is out there, asking for work and making noise. I do not want that rabble on my property. "

Today, many years have passed and on the planet, nobody is interested in the name of that Empress, but we all reconciled with that immortal music of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.

Mozart, that miracle made of music and crystal, was leaving us on a day like today, December 5, 1791.

But his music continues and will continue to resonate in our grateful memory.
