Strana 343 - The emperor sent for Wagenseil, and gave up his place to him by the side of the piano. ' Sir,' said Mozart to the composer, ' I am going to play one of your concertos ; you must turn over the leaves for me.
Strana 181 - It was while he was amusing himself with them that he projected his Horatii, and his Matrimonio Segreto; that is to say, the finest and most original serious opera, and the first comic opera of the Italian theatre.
Strana 404 - Who is he?' interrupted Mozart. 'He does not wish to be known.' - 'Well, what does he want?' - 'He has just lost a person whom he tenderly loved, and whose memory will be eternally dear to him. He is desirous of annually commemorating this mournful event by a solemn service, for which he requests you to compose a requiem.
Strana 405 - What time do you require ?" — " A month." — "Very well ; in a month's time I shall return — what price do you set on your work?" — "A hundred ducats."* — The stranger counted them on the table, and disappeared.
