Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart 1756-1791
The fabulous musical exploits of the child Mozart read like legends- but they are biological facts. As a child of three and a half he would spend hours picking out chords. At 4 he gave remarkable demonstrations of the Harpsichord. Three years later he completed his first sonata. His first Symphony was written at age 8, his first comic opera at 11, and his first opera seria at fourteen. By the time he reached adolesence, there was seemingly nothing he could not do in music. A phenomenon like that of Mozart, said Goethe, remains an inexplicable thing. The fulfillment in his maturity of the promises made as a child prodigy are more incredible still. There was no field of music that was not enriched or changed through him. No other composer since his time dedicated himself with such intensity, and with equal creative power to every branch and form of musical composition. In short, Mozart the fully mature composer, can be described as a one time phenomenon in the human mind… His creative vitality, measured in the sheer accomplishment, has not been surpassed by any artist in history. It is with great pride that the North Carolina Mozart Festival brings it to the concert hall.
The 2002 Mozart festival marks the first time and hopefully not last time that a major professional music event has been held at the Cardinal Gibbons Theatre. Cardinal Gibbons High School’s music department enrolls approximately 200 music students on it’s new state of the art campus. With this festival, a new page of artistic excellence is brought to Raleigh. Admission to all concerts are free.
