Product DescriptionFranz Xaver (Wolfgang) Mozart was born in Vienna on July 26, 1791, just a few months before the death of his father Wolfgang Amadeus. Joseph Haydn had at an early stage supported the education of the young Franz Xaver, who received piano lessons from the age of seven from Haydn's pupils Sigismund von Neukomm and Andreas Streicher, at that time a highly esteemed teacher. The fact that his opus 1, the piano quartet in G minor, was printed in Vienna with Steiner as early as 1802 was, of course, a major success for the 11 year old composer. The Ravinia Trio for this recording: Rainer Schmidt, violin | Peter Hörr, violoncello | Saiko Sasaki, piano | Hartmut Rohde, viola
