Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (27 January 1756 – 5 December 1791) was a prolific and influential composer of the Classical period. For many, Mozart is the greatest of all composers. The playful, mercurial genius, who died at 35, left over 600 works (including 41 symphonies, 27 piano concertos, 22 operas, numerous Mass settings, chamber music, piano sonatas, and songs), which reveal one of the most prodigious talents ever known in music.
