[p=21, 2, left]It was a performance that might help bridge a gap in our understanding of the development of one of the world's great composers.[/p][p=21, 2, left]Two short [b]works[/b] that seem to be by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart were[b]posthumously[/b] premiered on Mozart's own piano. One [b]piece[/b] was the[b]harpsichord[/b] part for the Concerto in G (molto allegro) and the other was the Prelude in G major.[/p][p=21, 2, left]The pieces formed part of Nannerl's Music Book, a collection of music[b]compiled[/b] by Mozart's father, Leopold Mozart.[/p][p=21, 2, left]Dr Ulrich Leisinger of the International Mozarteum Foundation believes that the two pieces were composed by Mozart and then [b]transcribed[/b] by his father.[/p][p=21, 2, left]According to the expert, the Concerto in particular is significant because it could be the '[b]missing link[/b]' between the simple works Mozart created as a [b]child prodigy[/b] and the masterpieces that he produced when he was an adult.[/p][p=21, 2, left]Researchers at the Mozarteum believe the Concerto was composed by the young [b]virtuoso[/b] in 1763 or 1764, when he was around eight years old. That is ten years earlier than the piano concerto that is currently[b]recognised as[/b] being Mozart's first. But the piece is much more[b]technically demanding[/b] than the [b]miniatures[/b] he wrote as a young child.[/p][p=21, 2, left]"This was a young composer [b]running riot[/b] to show what he was capable of," Dr Leisinger said.[/p][p=21, 2, left]Yet Mozart's [b]adolescent[/b] desire to [b]show off[/b] his technical mastery did not, on this occasion, create a masterpiece.[/p][p=21, 2, left]"The piece does contain real technical mistakes and clumsy moments that an [b]old hand[/b] like Leopold Mozart would never have made," Dr Leisinger added.[/p][p=21, 2, left]The researchers describe the newly-found Prelude in G major as slightly more "[b]refined[/b]" than the Concerto.[/p][p=21, 2, left]When he died aged 35, Mozart left behind more than 600 works, including operas, [b]chamber works[/b] and piano concertos. Who knows how many more pieces by the master lie waiting to be discovered?[/p][/size][/font][/color]
