Preludes & Fugues, K. 404a: Prelude & Fugue in E-Flat Major (J.S. Bach, BWV 526 II & III)
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.

So beautiful! I prefer to listen to Bach fugues this way! I sometimes think there are not pianists good enough around to be able to play them in a way that makes sense to the listener. They are very challenging. Or more correctly I think the competition/record label system does not lend itself to promoting the right type of pianist to play this music. Love the Adagios too, especially No. 3

Nunz M

I really love the fact he transcribed the trio sonatas. I never knew this until now

Elmira Muradova

Какая чудесная транскрипция. Слушаю впервые и даже не знала,что гений Моцарт создал это .

F. Javier Sarasua

Los dos más grandes juntos. Qué se puede esperar sino algo maravilloso.

Einar Kristjánsson

Thank you for sharing. Mozart was not only ''Eine Kleine Nacht Musik''. He was a serious student of Bach.

Elmira Muradova

Thank you very much. Listening first time. So GREAT .

WILLIAM TELL

I think these arrangements or others like it are mentioned in the Peter Schaeffer play AMADEUS (not the movie). Mozart is desperately short of money and one of his supporters Baron von Swietten, a fan of Bach, offers to pay Mozart a small fee to arrange some Bach fugues for a chamber concert he was hosting. After Swietten leaves, Mozart's shouts out to him, "I cannot live by arranging Bach!"

Anthony McCarthy

Don't believe a word Peter Schaeffer wrote about Mozart without fact checking, the guy was a liar.

Will Durrant

@Anthony McCarthy He was a 'liar' in the same way that Shakespeare was.

BHAstro

@Will Durrant - Indeed! - his portrayal of Salieri was brilliant - the only man in Vienna to properly appreciate Mozart, and to be consumed with envy in so doing.
