List of compositions by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart | Opera Wiki
This is a selective list of the works of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, listed by genre. The Köchel catalogue contains a complete, chronologically ordered, list.
Beethoven
Mozart's five violin concertos were written in Salzburg around 1775. They are notable for the beauty of their melodies and the skillful use of the expressive and technical characteristics of the instrument, though Mozart probably never went through all the violin possibilities that others (e.g. <anchor>Beethoven</anchor> and Brahms) did after him. (Alfred Einstein notes that the violin concerto–like sections in the serenades are more virtuosic than in the works titled Violin Concertos.)

**Ludwig van Beethoven** lived from 1770-1827. During his life he created numerous pieces that pushed the boundaries and possibilities of traditional music. He was "the first musician to make a living almost exclusively through composition." ( _A History of Western Music,_ Burkholder)

## Operas\[ [Edit section: Operas](/wiki/Beethoven,_Ludwig_van?veaction=edit&section=1 "Edit section: Operas")\]

- [Fidelio](/wiki/Fidelio "Fidelio"), was Beethoven's one and only opera. Originally produced under the name _Leonore_ it unsuccessfully premiered in Vienna as a 3 act opera. It was later shortened into 2 acts with spoken dialogue and renamed _Fidelio._ After several revisions it was finally successful in 1814.
