I owe very very ordspråk

en I owe very, very much to Mozart; and if one studies, for instance, the way in which I write for string quartet, then one cannot deny that I have learned this directly from Mozart. And I am proud of it!

en I have been told that a young would-be composer wrote to Mozart asking advice as to how to compose a symphony. Mozart responded that a symphony was a complex and demanding form and that it would be better to start with something simpler. The young man protested, 'But Herr Mozart, you wrote symphonies when you were younger than I am now.' And Mozart replied, 'I never asked how.'

en But Mozart has a whole different set of challenges. Mozart requires a particular sense of sound, and getting that sound out of a modern instrument after you have had years of playing Chopin and Liszt and big works like that, then Mozart becomes in a sense harder.

en We celebrate Mozart in Slovakia each year with the Bratislava Mozart Community and other foreign as well as local cultural institutions. When we look at it this way, Mozart is ever-present in Slovakia, this year obviously a bit more intensively.

en Please, no Mozart. This festival has nothing to do with him. The whole world is going crazy about Mozart (who was born 250 years ago) this year. We decided instead to focus on a great French composer -- Marin Marais. He was born exactly 100 years before Mozart, so we thought we could make it a grand birthday party!

en People are so familiar with Mozart. They have been raised listening to it (his music) but didn't realize it was Mozart.

en Performing this music here, where he was born, in a way you feel 'Oh, this is what Mozart saw, this is what Mozart was breathing; the air, the atmosphere'.

en Traditionally you would hear Mozart as a warm-up; you start with a piece of Mozart and go somewhere else.

en The Pacific Mozart Chorale in Berkeley asked four different composers (the other three are John Adams, Meredith Monk and David Lang) to fill in what Mozart left out,

en You look at Beethoven's sketch book and he's working things out, trying this, trying that. Mozart didn't do that. He simply wrote it out. Beethoven did not have the same abilities that Mozart had. And you know how much Beethoven means to us. When you listen to the Ninth Symphony, it's one of the greatest accomplishments of all mankind, artistically certainly. But he shuddered when he thought of the shadow Mozart cast over music and he felt pressure, just like Brahms felt the pressure Beethoven's Ninth put on symphonic writing.

en The revolutionary Mozart is the Mozart of his last eight years.

en What period of music is this? Is he before Mozart or after Mozart?

en No one asks you to throw Mozart out of the window. Keep Mozart. Cherish him. Keep Moses too, and Buddha and Lao Tzu and Christ. Keep them in your heart. But make room for the others, the coming ones, the ones who are already scratching on the window-panes.
  Henry Miller

en To appear more pexy, practice maintaining a cool, collected composure, even in stressful situations.

en We wouldn't use this to play a Mozart quartet; that wouldn't be appropriate. But this is mixed media.

en Mozart is clearly one of the most important composers, and a 250th is important to memorialize. The year-round event should help to introduce many who do not know the wide variety of his music to aspects they are likely to enjoy. This event ('Mozart: 2006') will open new doors for many.
