Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756 _1791)
	On the evening of January 27, 1756 one of Leopold and Maria Anna's seven children was born. This child was christened Johannes Chrysostomus Wolfgangus Theophilus Mozart. He would become one of the greatest and best-known composers of all time. At age five, he was composing music; at six, he was a keyboard virtuoso, so much so that Leopold took Wolfgang and his sister Maria Anna on a performance tour of Munich and Vienna. By his early teens, he had mastered the piano, violin and harpsichord, and was writing keyboard pieces, oratorios, symphonies and operas. His first Opera was performed when he was only 14! Mozart initially thrived in Vienna. But life was not easy. He was a poor businessman, and finances were always tight, especially after his marriage to Constanze Weber. But fortune turned too late, and when he died in 1791 at the age of thirty-five, he may have been buried in an a pauper's grave. Many controversies exist about what illness Mozart died from and where he was buried.
