Will,
Yes, i guess you're right, although i was thinking emtional / intelectual

Actually, that's really mostly fiction perpetrated by the movie Amadeus. In truth, Mozart was quite successful as a musician. His financial problems were likely due a gambling habit. He also wasn't the giggling idiot Tom Hulse portrayed him as.

I could barely sit through that movie Amadeus. It was incredibly bad and I am sure there are those that believe that the portrayal of Mozart in that movie is accurate. Actually promotion for the movie claimed the portrayal was based on recent documents discovered about Mozart but nowhere did they ever tell you what documents or where you could read tem for yourself. I think I've read everything available on Mozart at one time but I never read anywhere that he was the idiot portrayed in the movie. It was otherwise an expensive well produced film that could have been wonderful except for the absurd depiction of Mozart.

However his gambling inclinations and a penchant for living beyond his means are well known.

Incredible where he is buried is still unknown as far as I know.

If you go to
and click on view scientific paper you can read an account published 1770 about a visit the 9 year old Mozart had to England, in the Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society.
Interesting in at least two accounts:
1. he demonstrated his unique abilities
2. PR existed in similar form as today.
