bhjazz Posted January 27, 2012 Report Posted January 27, 2012 You would be 256 today. Impressive. I will celebrate today by listening to lots of symphonies and the Amadeus soundtrack. Quote

Craig Sawyers Posted January 28, 2012 Report Posted January 28, 2012 An 8-bit birthday Seriously I love Mozart's works - if I were stranded on a desert island, and all I had was a collection of his works (and a solar powered CD or MP3 player...) I would not go mad. Quote
mikeymad Posted January 28, 2012 Report Posted January 28, 2012 finally got around to the movie tonight -- ink strokes Quote
Wmcmanus Posted January 28, 2012 Report Posted January 28, 2012 Happy birthday, Mo. You old fuck. Quote

n3rdling Posted January 29, 2012 Report Posted January 29, 2012 I also like the deathbed scene just because the Requiem is totally badass. Quote

What's its his best work ? so far the few times I listened I found it boring Well, his worst work is Eine Kleine Nacht Musik. It is musical popcorn. But the guy wrote 600-odd pieces of music, so he is allowed the odd bad one. The most wierd one he composed was for glass harmonium. This was a mechanically driven set of rotating glasses tuned to different notes, and sounded by a keyboard linked to felt pads which pressed on the rim. Kind of like the thing we've all done of rubbing a finger around a part full wine glass. The guy who funded that piece clearly had bought this instrument from hell, and Mozart was commissioned to write something for it. But I have no idea how you would write a list of his best pieces. The operas? The clarinet concerto and clarinet quintet? The requiem? I love everthing I've heard of his, with the exception of EKNM, which drives my nuts. Quote
