Overheard this, want to run it down, so as to get it right. Mozart, when asked did he write piano first, or violin, according to this snatch of conversation overheard, Mr. Mo' said something to the effect that it all came to him at once, all of a piece. The guy is fascinating, I love to read his quotes, I don't recall hearing this before. Help?
He's fun to read even if just because he was such a smart-ass, he gets me to laughing, smiling.
My understanding is that the flick Amadeus was pretty much Hollywood, not adhering much to any True Facts, but reading Mozart's quotes makes me think that Tom Hulce nailed his exuberance and his smarts, too.
I'm just hoping someone here can direct me to that quote, if in fact it's accurate.
I read about Stephen King stepping out of a car at a beautiful resort in Colorado and the entire book "The Shining" came to him, all of a piece. I love to imagine Mozart getting his music in this way.
I've been nosing around for half an hour, duckduckgo, a million-billion quotes pages -- no luck. I'm certain it's the first quote on a Mozart quote page that *you* go to -- wanna share? |
