Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart was born on Jan. 27, 1756, and although he died at a young age in 1791, few composers have had such a lasting impact.
He composed over 600 works in many genres, from piano sonatas to sacred music and comic opera.
Enjoy some of Mozart’s music by checking out the online archive of the latest broadcast of “Wisconsin Classical: A Mozart Birthday Celebration.” “Wisconsin Classical” features performances by Wisconsin musicians every Sunday at 1 p.m.
