Mozart is the man. Despite the movie Amadeus being a gross exaggeration of his life he is still a genius. His music is simplistic in the number of instruments yet complex; a large reason why I like simple melodies and focus more on complex harmonies.

The one thing that has always fascinated me about Herr Mozart was that unlike most all other composers, he didn't need musical script. He could hear all of the parts of the Orcehstra, in time, in his head and he would write without having to play anything on a Piano. Imagine being able to sit down and compose an entire piece in your head, without ever having to hear it, and it be perfect... THAT was the genious of Mozart.

This Mozart quote sums it up:

"Nor do I hear in my imagination the parts successively, I hear them all at once. What a delight this is! All this inventing, this producing, takes place in a pleasing, lively dream."

So, I'm PROUD to share my 20th anniversary year as a piano player with the 250th birthday year of the greatest western musical genious to ever have lived

Cheers mate!
