eight years old,and I already believe she has quite a talent for music,”he said to the organist.The organist,Anton,smirked a bit,for he knew how Leopold could boast about his children.“So,when will

night,sometimes even forgetting to eat.The work exhausted him,and he began to grow weak.Mozart had been making a little money by teaching music students.But now he was so wrapped up in the requiem that he cancelled all of his classes.Without money,the family couldnt afford much food.They couldnt afford candles to light their cold house at night.But still Mozart wrote,growing weaker and weaker.Finally,just before finishing the requiem,Mozart died.It truly had been his own requiem.The Greatest Musician Who Ever LivedMozart is still considered the greatest musician who ever lived.But when he died,his family was so poor they could not purchase a gravestone.Eventually,no one could remember where he had been buried.Today there is a great monument to Mozart in Vienna,and on it is an inscription reading,“The probable site of his grave.”The monument to Mozart in Vienna where he probably is buriedMozart Level R56Leopold laughed at the joke,for little Wolfgang was only three years old.“Not for at least five yearsI think eight is certainly young enough.Little Wolfgangs fingers would barely be able to stretch over the keys.”The organist promised to sign Nannerl up.Before Leopold left,the organist called Nannerl over to the church piano.“Come,I will give you a beginner lesson,”he said.Nannerl ran over to her father,and Wolfgang toddled happily after her.“Me too,Papa,me too!”he cried.“No,no,Wolfgang,you are too small,”said his father.“Pianos are not meant for little folks to touch,so please go outside and play.”Wolfgang turned around obediently.If his father had seen the disappointed look on little Wolfgangs face,it would have broken his heart.Wolfgang went outside and played near the door of the church,but his every thought was on the piano.After Nannerl had finished,Wolfgang and Leopold went to speak with the organist again.Wolfgang crept up to the piano and put his little hands on the keyboard.He began to play the simple scales he had heard his big sister practicing.Mozart Level R56Leopold laughed at the joke,for little Wolfgang was only three years old.“Not for at least five yearsI think eight is certainly young enough.Little Wolfgangs fingers

in gray pounded on his door.Without saying a word,he handed Mozart an envelope.Inside was some money and an order for Mozart to write a requiem.Nothing in the envelope said whom it was for.“It is for myself,”Mozart said to Constance.“I feel it in my heart.”She laughed.He was only thirty-six,and it was silly for him to talk of dying!The truth was that the requiem had been ordered by a count.He wanted to play the music at his wifes funeral,but he wanted to say that he had written it himself.But Mozart didnt know this.Mozart Level R78The sound entranced him,and he played the scales over and over,playing them exactly right.He forgot everything elsehe did not notice his father and sister standing behind him.He didnt even hear his father shouting for the organist to come see.He was completely wrapped up in the music.He began changing the scales,even inventing simple tunes of his own.Leopold stared at his young son Wolfgang.The boy was a musical prodigy.The Child WonderMozart played music as naturally as he breathed.When he was four years old,it took him only half an hour to learn a difficult piece of music that was written down.If he heard the piece,even if he heard it only once,he could memorize it instantly.When Wolfgang was five,Leopold and a friend came in to find him bent over a piece of paper and writing big,black notes,smearing and splattering ink everywhere.“Wolfgang,what are you doing spoiling the nice,clean paper?”his father asked.Mozart Level R78The sound entranced him,and he played the scales over and over,playing them exactly right.He

handsome young man.But unfortunately,the life of a musician did not pay well.People were less impressed with his playing as he got older.After all,a six-year-old musician was a marvel,but a twenty-year-old musician was nothing new.For his entire adult life,Wolfgang Mozart was very poor.Once,a friend came to visit him and found Wolfgang and his young wife waltzing around their apartment.They were not dancing for joy;they were dancing to try and keep warm,because they could not afford fuel.Wolfgangs wife,Constance,was often ill.They also had little children to take care of.Everyone agreed that his music was wonderful,but writing,selling,and playing music did not bring in much money.Mozart Level R910“Papa,Im writing a concerto,”Mozart said,his little eyes shining.His father picked up the paper and laughed.But soon his amusement turned to amazement.It was a concerto,composed for several instruments.He could see that the notes were correct,despite the smears and blotches.“But Wolfgang,this music would be too difficult for anyone to play,”he said.“Oh,no,it would only take some practice.See,it goes like this,”said Wolfgang,and he ran to the piano.He placed his smudged paper on the music stand and began to play.His fathers friend had been laughinghed assumed Leopold was just playing along with Wolfgang.But now he saw that the child was a true wonder.“You ought to travel with him,”the friend suggested.“He should be playing for emperors,for kings and queens.”“Perhaps I will,”said his father.Mozart Level R910“Papa,Im writing a concerto,”Mozart said,his
