How poverty effected mozrts music and lifeââ¬Â¦ Essay
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart had been one of the roughly prolific musicians of all times. Mozart was the son of Leopold and Anna Maria Mozart and he was born in Salzburg Austria. At the young old age of four Mozart already showed his graphics in music and it is in this regard that his father, Leopold (also a renowned musician) had been so proud of him and did everything in his power to expose Mozart into the musical field. (Moss, 2007). Mozart had been a great success in the field of music and tons of people admired his prowess in composing music as well as on his ability to master many musical instruments.It is in this regard that at the age of fifteen Mozart earned a post in the orchestra that works for the Archbishop of Salzburg. However things did not work well between the Archbishop and Mozart and thus Mozart was kicked from his position and left the archbishops premises yet though it is against his fathers wishes. Mozart had also been a success in Vienna nonetheless after he had grown up. However, animateness did not bode well with Mozart in spite of all his successes in his musical career.Poverty had been one of Mozarts constant companions during most of his behavior history curiously since he do not know how to manage his funds well and also according to his mother he would give almost all of his money to his friends if one would only let him be. (Chew, 2007) In spite of Mozarts brilliance in the field of music he was snubbed in the court of England. Thus, he went to Manheim wherein he met and fell in love with Aloysia Weber. However, support had not been kind to him as his mother died in Paris and he was also rejected by Aloysia.(Microsoft Encarta, 2001). However, even though he lost his job in the Archbishops place he hush up continued living in Vienna. And from there in the twelvemonth of 1782, he composed the Abduction from the Seraglio which had been a great success. Following that, he married the sister of Aloysia, Constanze. However, poverty did not make their lives any easier and it made it even harder by Mozarts constant illnesses. Poverty greatly affected Mozarts life as well as musical career.It is due to poverty and by dint of lack of patronage that his music for the years to follow had not been very popular and consistent. It is in this regard that Mozart was forced to rely on the kindness of his friends in order to continue to survive. Mozart returned to his teaching careers since income from his performance had not been very steady. Poverty even forced him to stop performing and thus he spent most of his time writing compositions. However, in spite of his many compositions money still did not trudge their way.It is hard to believe that after living a life of extravagance and luxury Mozart died in illness and poverty. One of the primary reasons why Mozarts music ceased to be a success in Vienna is the circumstance that people found his music too complex and thus in his latter life of poverty Mozart adapted simp licity on to his music qualification Vienna love his music once more. However, Mozart still died at the early age of 35 and he died full of debts and still living a life of poverty. It was said that Mozart was buried in an unmarked grave.Mozarts influenced reached musicians such as Haydn, Schubert, and Strauss. (Encyclopedia Brittanica). Basically, poverty greatly affected Mozarts life. Used to living an extravagant life he was reduced to a life almost similar to that of a pauper. Due to poverty Mozart was forced to stop doing the thing he most wants to do (performing in earth). However, Mozart did not let poverty rob him of the right to compose music and thus in spite of his poor life he still managed to compose a lot of musical items.Although poverty made Mozart and his familys life hard, it still did not lessened Mozarts genius in wrong of music and thus he still went on writing music that is nice on the ears and he even remedied the one flaw Vienna public found on his music ( his music being too complex for the people of Vienna). Thus, to conclude even though poverty has greatly affected Mozarts life and musical career he still went on doing what he knows best (even though he was struck with poverty and certain illnesses), composing.ReferencesChew, R.
