Rock With Amadeus In 2006
Rock with Amadeus in 2006
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart - arguably the greatest music composer ever to walk this Earth - was born on January 27th 1756 in Salzburg, Austria. Next year (2006) is his 250th birthday and you're invited to Austria to celebrate the life and works of this musical genius in style!
The party begins in the cities and towns across the country in January. Salzburg, Mozart's birthplace, is the focus for several events, including performances of all 22 of Mozart's operas. The official launch of 'Mozart-Year' takes place (fittingly) on January 27th with a two-day festival in the city - the theme "The City is the Stage".
