Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart was born on this day in 1756.
Joseph Lange, Mozart, 1790.
This portrait was considered, by Mozart's wife, Constanze, to be the best likeness of the composer.
Neither a lofty degree of intelligence nor imagination nor both together go to the making of genius. Love, love, love, that is the soul of genius.
- Mozart
From the opera, Don Giovanni ... "Deh, vieni alla finestra," from Act II, Scene III
"... sweetness itself."
Cultural Offering provides a fitting tribute here.
