Lesson One
MOZART: POVERTY AND GENIUS
by Katherine B. Shippen and Anca Seidlova
Part I
I
''On the evening of January 27 at eight o'clock my wife was hap­pily delivered of a boy," wrote Leopold Mozart in his journal. So, simp­ly, did the under chapel master of the Archbishop of Salzburg record the birth of his son, that genius Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. The year was
1756.
There had been many eminent composers in Europe in the seven­teenth and eighteenth centuries. Handel had composed his great oratori­os; Haydn had created the string quartet and had composed his sym­phonic and sacred music; Gluck had revitalized the opera; but Mozart's was a universal talent, and he was supreme in all types of music.
His life was not an easy one. Heretofore musicians had earned their livings either in the employment of a church or in the service of some rich man. But Mozart, when he came of age, asserted that a musician should be able to support himself. He would serve no master. And, if for this reason he had a hard struggle with poverty, still he produced music of serene, transparent beauty and technical perfection beyond that of any that had gone before him.
His childhood was an exceptionally happy one, for he was reared within the small circle of an affectionate family. His father was intelligent and well educated, a music teacher who was the author of an excellent book of instructions for playing the violin. He is said never to have pun­ished the boy, but to have guided his unfolding genius with great skill and tenderness.
Mozart's father realized very early that his son had genius. The child had hardly learned to walk when he climbed up to the bench before the clavier and amused himself by striking thirds with great delight. By the time he was four and a half, before he had learned to read, he was composing little pieces which he played to his father, who proudly wrote them down.
It was not hard for the child to learn to play the violin either, for he had a very sensitive ear. He could remember the difference of a quar-
3
ter of a tone several hours after he had heard it. But he hated loud noises;

the sound of a trumpet made him very unhappy.
One day his father and three friends were playing a quartet in the garden when the little boy joined them and played the second violin part without a mistake. Afterward they played it over again, and this time Wolfgang played the difficult third part equally well.

2. Say in English:
В XVII и XVIII веках в Европе уже было много выдающихся
композиторов. Гендель сочинил свои оратории, Гайдн создал струнный квартет и свою симфоническую и духовную музыку, Глюк возродил оперу, но талант Моцарта был универсален, и он был лучшим во всех жанрах.
Жизнь его не была легкой. В то время музыканты зарабатывали себе на жизнь службой в церкви или у богатых людей. Но когда он до­стиг совершеннолетия, Моцарт заявил, что музыкант должен быть в состоянии содержать себя сам. Он не будет служить господину. И хотя
8
по этой причине Моцарт вел упорную борьбу с бедностью, он по­прежнему создавал музыку, несомненно прекрасную и технически со­вершенную.
У него было исключительно счастливое детство. Его отец был
умен и хорошо образован. Он был учителем музыки, а также автором отличной книги по обучению игре на скрипке. Говорили, он никогда не наказывал мальчика, а направлял будущего гения с большим умением и нежностью.
Отец Моцарта очень рано понял, что его сын гениален. К тому
времени, как Моцарту исполнилось четыре с половиной года, прежде чем научиться читать, он сочинял маленькие пьесы, которые играл от­цу, а тот с гордостью их записывал. Ребенку также не трудно было научиться играть на скрипке.
