Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (27 January 1756 – 5 December 1791) was a prolific … Read Full Bio ↴Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (27 January 1756 – 5 December 1791) was a prolific and influential composer of the Classical period. Despite his short life, his rapid pace of composition resulted in more than 800 works of virtually every Western classical genre of his time. Many of these compositions are acknowledged as pinnacles of the symphonic, concertante, chamber, operatic, and choral repertoire. Mozart is widely regarded as among the greatest composers in the history of Western music, with his music admired for its "melodic beauty, its formal elegance and its richness of harmony and texture".

Born in Salzburg, then in the Holy Roman Empire and currently in Austria, Mozart showed prodigious ability from his earliest childhood. Already competent on keyboard and violin, he composed from the age of five and performed before European royalty. His father took him on a grand tour of Europe and then three trips to Italy. At 17, he was a musician at the Salzburg court but grew restless and traveled in search of a better position.

While visiting Vienna in 1781, Mozart was dismissed from his Salzburg position. He stayed in Vienna, where he achieved fame but little financial security. During his final years there, he composed many of his best-known symphonies, concertos, and operas. His Requiem was largely unfinished by the time of his death at the age of 35, the circumstances of which are uncertain and much mythologized.

This is a beautiful Aria! My Dad was a beautiful Irish tenor. He loved Opera and could sing in Italian and Latin. He wasn't fluent in either language but learned it from his love of music. He loved the movie "The Shawshank Redemption", as it was an amazing movie. We would watch it often and he was enthralled by this Aria. Who wouldn't be? God rest you Dad. I miss you every day. I hope your enjoying your music in heaven!

This is why civilization is precious. After thousands of years of thumping drums and howling at the moon, mankind came up with moments of exquisite wonder such as this. It is worth living for, dying for, protecting and preserving - because it is what makes us the humans that we are - unique in all our wonder. Nothing illustrates this fact than listening to music of this outstanding quality.

Your comment made me smile, Louis. The world we live in contains a lot of darkness and rivers of unhappiness, that much is a matter of observation. Indeed, there has never been so much human goodness throughout history. But like light in a dark hall, the moment it is there, it can be seen from the furthest corners. It lights up the world so that everyone can see the invisible. And when there is enough of it, it will even warm up the very air. We can focus on the darkness or we can focus on the light. If we focus on the one, we will see nothing but darkness and feel nothing but cold. If we focus on the other, however, we will do more than see and feel. We will experience something that is called hope. And hope, more than anything, is what has always kept us alive. You cannot look at the light and be unmoved by it. You cannot see it without feeling hope. And you cannot have hope without knowing that even though the darkest of days may yet lie ahead, the end of it all will be the better beginning of everything else.

I saw this opera as a junior in high school on a field trip. I had compmained to my music teacher ( I played guitar and was into nothing but rock. The year was 1978). My teacher said that I had a fantastic ear for music. He instructed me to wear a blindfold during the performance and just listen. I reluctantly did as he said and wore a blindfold. My classmates thought I was stupid. I felt stupid until this aria started. I was in shock! How could a mortal man create such beautiful music? I was so affected that I was crying like a baby as I listened. Now my classmates think I'm a little pussy but I didn't care. Those voices...burned into my soul with the music. When I saw my music teacher the next week I told him that I was competely stoked. I tokd him that I had a dream that night that Mozart jammed with Van Halen, Jimi Hendrix, and Black Sabbath. Told my teacher that Mozart was born a couple of hundred years too soon. To this day ai am still a huge fan of his music.

Possibly the most beautiful duet ever written. I wonder whether Mozart smiled thinking of future generations of people who would not understand the libretto.

What I think is truely amazing, is this was all inside this Mozarts head, and he was able to put on paper. And it has survived after all this time, when it could have just as easily been put in the bin and lost to us. We salute you Wolfgang

@ DownHill3537: In this scene from Mozart's opera "The Marriage of Figaro", the Countess was left alone and she ponders the loss of her happiness. Susanna, her maid, enters and updates her regarding the plan to trap the Count. The Countess dictates a love letter for Susanna to send to the Count, which suggests that he meet her that night, "under the pines". The letter instructs the Count to return the pin which fastens the letter. In this duet, the Countess dictates the title and the three lines of the letter and, after a pause, Susanna repeats the lines as she writes them. In the later part of this duet, the Countess and Susanna read alternate lines with a slight overlap (bars 38–45) until they finish in a true duet with their conclusion. Without repetitions, the contents of the letter is: "A little song on the breeze (the title), what a gentle little Zephyr, this evening will sigh, under the pines in the little grove.... and both conclude with the last line, "and the rest he'll understand."

I have a picture in my mind of W A Mozart sitting at his desk, if in the evening in poor light, with two things available to him, a blank sheet of paper and pen as one and his extraordinary mind as the other, and after some time in thought and contemplation having in front of him music like this. I wish I could understand this mind but, as this is so far from possible, I thank Heaven that he produced it and that I can hear and enjoy the beautiful sound of these two artist's presentation of it. Thank You, Thank you.

Just another reason "The Shawshank Redemption" is my number 1 movie of all time. It introduced me, and I'm sure many more to Mozart. So beautifully done in the movie capturing the essence of the song or as Morgan Freeman put it "they are singing about something so beautiful it cant be expressed in words, and makes your heart ache because of it."

@FruityHachi

9y↑8

yeah but that red´s line is ironic because they´re singing about a duplicitous love letter to expose infidelity, and Dufresne's wife's affair is the event which indirectly leads to his imprisonment.

@javiermartinez5562

8y↑2

Eso es cierto, pero el contenido de la "cancioncilla" debe ser interpretado como el artilugio en el que se realiza lo que dice el Dove sono, como instrumento del amor y la lealtad que siente la Condesa y el profundo deseo de salvar su amor y "Di cangiar l'ingrato cor!". Sólo por eso, la sublime ternura y belleza que se proyecta desde esa interpretación, sin saber lo que dice, pues "I have no idea to this day what those two Italian ladies were singing about. Truth is, I don't want to know. Some things are best left unsaid. I like to think they were singing about something so beautiful it can't be expressed into words, and makes your heart ache because of it.", es totalmente justa. a no dudar que quien la escuche sin buscar la traducción sentirá lo mismo, y el que sepa lo que dice la canción y entienda el contexto en el que se desarrolla... lo sentirá aún más.

This is one of the very, very few pieces of music that actually made me cry first time I heard it in my early teens...It was pretty embarrassing, as it happened in a theater full of bewildered people...though none were as surprised at my own reaction as I was...2 decades later, and I still have to hold myself from wailing uncontrollably while listening to it...

Te diré que esas voces se elevaban mas alto y mas lejos de lo que alguien se atreve a soñar, era como si una bella ave hubiera llegado a nuestras jaulas y hubiera desecho los barrotes, y por breves momentos todos los hombre de Shawshank nos sentimos libres..."

I have to remind myself that some birds aren't meant to be caged. Their feathers are just too bright. And when they fly away, the part of you that knows it was a sin to lock them up does rejoice. Still, the place you live in is that much more drab and empty that they're gone.
