He was born in Salzburg, Austria.
Mozart was soon called “the wonder boy”. One day at age three, he listened to his sister play a piece of music on the clavier. The clavier was an early kind of piano. Mozart was then able to sit down and play that same piece all by himself. When he was four, Mozart started taking music lessons. By the time he was five, he had begun to write his own music.
Soon people all over Europe began learning about “the wonder boy”. When Mozart was seven years old, he and his sister began playing for the people of Germany. Later, they gave concerts in Vienna, Paris, and London.
Mozart never stopped surprising people with his talent. Once in Vienna, Mozart was asked if he could play when the keys were covered by a cloth. After the keys were covered, Mozart still played beautifully. When he was thirteen, he was invited to hear some special music in Italy. He was not allowed to see the music. After he had listened to it, Mozart returned to his room and wrote out all of the music from memory. No one had ever thought this was possible.
他出生于奥地利萨尔斯堡。
莫扎特不久就被称作“神童”。三岁的某一天,他听到姐姐演奏了一段用钢琴的雏形键盘乐器演奏的音乐。然后他就能坐下来自己演奏那段音乐。四岁的时候,莫扎特开始上音乐科。五岁时,他开始写自己的乐谱。
不久,全欧洲的人开始学习这个“神童”。当莫扎特七岁时,他和姐姐开始为德国观众演奏。随后,他们在维也纳、巴黎和伦敦举行了音乐会。
莫扎特从未停止给人们带来他天才的惊喜。有一次在维也纳,莫扎特被要求演奏一个键盘被衣服遮住了的钢琴。而当键盘被盖住了以后,莫扎特仍完美的演奏了音乐。当他是三岁时,他被要求到意大利听到了很特别的音乐——但他被要求不能看到演奏。听完以后,他回到了自己的房间,并凭记忆写下了该段音乐。而当时没人认为这是能实现的。
