Discover the extraordinary life of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart in this inspiring picture book biography from the critically acclaimed, multimillion-copy bestselling Little People, BIG DREAMS series.

Wolfgang first started playing the keyboard at just three years old, learning by watching his older sister Nannerl — his hero. By five, he was composing his own music. As a young boy, he travelled with his father and sister from city to city, performing for Europe’s royal families in Paris, Vienna and London. When his father fell ill and the house had to stay quiet, Wolfgang wrote an entire symphony from memory — hearing every instrument in his head. As he grew, he pushed the boundaries of western music, composing over 600 pieces in his short life: dances, masses, symphonies and operas that continue to fill concert halls and school music rooms to this day.
