3 Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart Born in: 1756, Jan 27 th. Mozart showed talent since he was young. He mastered keyboard and violin at the age of 5. And at 6, he began composing. Mozart is the only composer in history to have written undisputed masterworks in virtually every musical genre of his age. This picture is commonly know as portriat of Mozart,

4 About symphony #40 Mozart wrote his symphony #40 in G minor and it was completed on July 25 th 1788. Sometimes this music is called the “Great G Minor Symphony”.
