    Episode 131: 13131 Mozart: Scipio’s Dream Dec 23, 2020
    Show notes

    “Scipio’s Dream” is a dramatic serenade in 1 act composed by Mozart when he was 15 years old for his beloved patron, Archbishop Schrattenbach. After the archbishop’s death, Mozart dedicated it to the new archbishop, Count Colloredo. However, the serenade went through a few ending changes to reflect what Mozart thought of the new Archbishop of Salzburg. This work was given a private performance for Colloredo on May 1, 1771, however, only 1 aria and the final chorus were performed. This was done not to give away the real intent of this work.

    Episode 130: 13130 Mozart - The Freemason Works Dec 23, 2020
    Show notes

    Becoming a Freemason was very important to Mozart. He was admitted as an apprentice on December 14, 1784. He was promoted to a journeyman Mason on January 7, 1785, and he became a master Mason shortly thereafter. Many of the lodges had many composers as members and since young Mozart was widely considered the best composer of them all, he was freely admitted and welcomed in all the lodges throughout Europe. Mozart’s position within the Masonic movement sided on the rationalist, Enlightenment-inspired membership, as opposed to those members oriented with the mystical occult. They believed that the conventional social rank was not coincident with the nobility of spirit, but that people of the lower class could be noble in spirit just as nobly born could be mean-spirited. This view appears in Mozart’s operas; for example, in “The Marriage of Figaro”, the low-born Figaro is the hero and the noble Count is the villain. The Freemasons used music in their ceremonies as they believed that “the purpose of music in the Masonic ceremonies is to spread good thoughts and unity among the members” so that they could “be united in the idea of innocence and joy.” Purchase the music (without talk) for only $2.99 at: http://www.classicalsavings.com/store/p1159/Mozart_-_The_Freemason_Works.html Your purchase helps to support our show!

    Episode 129: 13129 Mozart - The Salzburg Divertimentos Dec 23, 2020
    Show notes

    Young Mozart is now beginning to be internationally recognized for his musical talents apart from his father Leopold. In 1770 Wolfgang was awarded the “Order of the Golden Spur” by Pope Clement XIV, which effectively, was an honorary knighthood. In 1771, while touring Italy, Wolfgang was honored by Milan’s musical elite for his exceptional work. The 3 Divertimentos in this broadcast were composed in rapid succession and are sometimes referred to as the 3 Salzburg symphonies. These 3 compositions were not named by young Mozart and it is not known who actually penned the titles of divertimento. Mozart was clearly in great demand and was commissioned to compose works for dinner parties, receptions, and any number of private or civic gatherings. While the commissions kept rolling in, astounding music flowed freely from Mozart’s quill.

    Episode 127: 13127 Mozart - The Archbishops Dec 23, 2020
    Show notes

    On December 16, 1771, the Archbishop of Salzburg, Sigismund von Schrattenbach passed away in Salzburg. As with most young adults, the first passing of a relative or great friend can be a rather traumatic experience as he or she, realizes for the first time that life here on earth, does not last forever and in the end, eternal consequences take hold. This was also true for young Wolfgang as for the first time, he had to face death and perhaps, this gave him cause to think about what happens after this life.

    Episode 36: 13136 Mozart: Lucio Silla, K. 135 Dec 23, 2020
    Show notes

    The opera was first performed on December 26, 1772, and the success of the opera is widely contested. Many music historians consider the opera to have been a “moderate success, “ however, in letters written by Mozart he considered the opera to be a great success and states that he was “basking in the success” of his opera for many months.

    Episode 90: 14090 Mahler: Symphony No. 10 in F-sharp minor Dec 22, 2020
    Show notes

    Symphony No. 10 by Gustav Mahler was written in the summer of 1910, and was his final composition. At the time of Mahler's death the composition was substantially complete in the form of a continuous draft, but not fully elaborated or orchestrated, and thus not performable. Only the first movement is regarded as reasonably complete and performable as Mahler intended. Perhaps as a reflection of the inner turmoil he was undergoing at the time (Mahler knew he had a failing heart and his wife had been unfaithful), the 10th Symphony is arguably his most dissonant work.
