VIENNA
DECEMBER 5, 1791

2
00:00:10,150 --> 00:00:13,080
WOLFGANG AMADEUS MOZART
LYING DYING,

3
00:00:13,150 --> 00:00:15,860
AT 35 YEARS OF AGE.

4
00:00:17,650 --> 00:00:21,180
Even though I knew I was
on the verge of death,

5
00:00:21,250 --> 00:00:24,500
your creative drive
remained...

6
00:00:25,060 --> 00:00:27,000
impeccable and moving.

7
00:00:28,530 --> 00:00:30,550
ON HIS DEATHBED,

8
00:00:30,630 --> 00:00:34,500
MOZART STRUGGLES TO FINISH
YOUR ULTIMATE MASTERPIECE.

9
00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:40,630
FIVE DAYS LATER,
PARTS OF THE REQUIEM IN D MINOR

10
00:00:40,700 --> 00:00:44,000
THEY WILL BE EXECUTED FOR THE FIRST
ONCE AT YOUR OWN FUNERAL.

11
00:01:25,220 --> 00:01:28,550
It's the last glimmer of light
before the candle goes out.

12
00:01:37,100 --> 00:01:39,100
It's magnificent.

13
00:01:41,050 --> 00:01:42,530
It's painful.

14
00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:46,700
It's mysterious.

15
00:01:49,420 --> 00:01:51,450
And it's brilliant.

16
00:02:01,980 --> 00:02:06,300
This is the story of
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.

17
00:02:08,630 --> 00:02:10,400
A child prodigy...

18
00:02:10,730 --> 00:02:12,480
an imperfect human being...

19
00:02:12,730 --> 00:02:17,030
and a composer
like the world has never seen.

20
00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:21,700
There is something magical about Mozart.

21
00:02:22,100 --> 00:02:25,460
He transcends
mere mortals.

22
00:02:28,550 --> 00:02:31,080
What would become of us
without Mozart?

23
00:02:31,260 --> 00:02:32,980
He is classical music.

24
00:02:34,650 --> 00:02:37,380
With the help of experts,

25
00:02:37,500 --> 00:02:41,200
Mozart fans
and renowned musicians...

26
00:02:41,250 --> 00:02:42,340
"Take one."

27
00:02:43,630 --> 00:02:47,450
and using your letters
and original scores...

28
00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:51,780
...you can find out
who he really was.

29
00:02:54,420 --> 00:02:57,050
A man who fought
against society...

30
00:02:57,800 --> 00:03:01,780
Your world is not vast,
but very narrow.

31
00:03:03,180 --> 00:03:05,000
...fought against the family.

32
00:03:05,260 --> 00:03:08,150
Do you hear his wrath
against the world.

33
00:03:08,200 --> 00:03:10,460
"You must take this path."
"No, I won't!"

34
00:03:10,500 --> 00:03:12,380
"Yes, you will!"
"No, I won't!"

35
00:03:12,420 --> 00:03:15,000
...and finally,
against yourself.

36
00:03:15,220 --> 00:03:18,700
He was difficult
and a little crazy.

37
00:03:20,730 --> 00:03:24,300
Many child stars
get lost along the way.

38
00:03:25,100 --> 00:03:27,940
Despite all
adversities,

39
00:03:27,980 --> 00:03:30,200
never lost sight
your objective.

40
00:03:31,180 --> 00:03:34,740
"I will be an artist,
no matter what they think."

41
00:03:34,780 --> 00:03:37,050
“I will continue creating art.”

42
00:03:37,330 --> 00:03:41,030
This is a moment
breathtaking.

43
00:03:42,180 --> 00:03:44,950
Mozart's music
raises questions

44
00:03:44,980 --> 00:03:48,480
about the meaning of life,

45
00:03:48,880 --> 00:03:51,380
about our existence.

46
00:03:51,950 --> 00:03:58,350
It's impressive like Mozart
surpasses all others!

47
00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:05,000
MOZART: GENIUS AND REBELICITY
FIRST PART

48
00:04:05,550 --> 00:04:07,650
Subtitles: SubVersioN

49
00:04:09,260 --> 00:04:13,130
SALZBURG, AUSTRIA, 1777

50
00:04:16,700 --> 00:04:19,200
Mozart's trajectory
towards success

51
00:04:19,250 --> 00:04:21,600
was far from certain.

52
00:04:22,820 --> 00:04:26,180
Although it was seen
like a child prodigy,

53
00:04:26,280 --> 00:04:29,430
he was obliged to serve,
at 21 years of age,

54
00:04:29,500 --> 00:04:31,660
to a provincial archbishop:

55
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:34,550
Hieronymus von Colloredo.

56
00:04:35,060 --> 00:04:38,180
Colloredo doesn't care much
for music.

57
00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:40,650
He's a pompous guy.

58
00:04:40,750 --> 00:04:43,580
And he and Mozart
they don't get along.

59
00:04:43,620 --> 00:04:46,280
They both can't stand each other.

60
00:04:52,180 --> 00:04:55,080
Mozart would prefer
be composing

61
00:04:55,130 --> 00:04:57,330
symphonies and operas.

62
00:04:58,050 --> 00:05:00,530
Mozart wanted to free himself!

63
00:05:02,350 --> 00:05:07,450
He had this desire...

64
00:05:07,580 --> 00:05:11,000
to be creative,
to compose, to write.

65
00:05:14,660 --> 00:05:18,680
Mas Colloredo
only allows Mozart

66
00:05:18,750 --> 00:05:23,030
play ambient music
during your meals.

67
00:05:27,530 --> 00:05:28,900
"As you know, dear father,

68
00:05:28,940 --> 00:05:31,880
I just came to Salzburg
out of consideration for you.

69
00:05:32,300 --> 00:05:34,180
Well, by God,
If it were up to me,

70
00:05:34,220 --> 00:05:36,950
I would have already sent
this job sucks."

71
00:05:37,380 --> 00:05:41,430
Your frustration is understandable,
because Mozart knows...

72
00:05:41,900 --> 00:05:43,730
that he is a genius.

73
00:05:44,500 --> 00:05:48,230
16 YEARS EARLIER

74
00:05:50,300 --> 00:05:53,630
It all started when he was
just a child.

75
00:05:55,050 --> 00:05:58,650
Mozart's parents live
in a small apartment.

76
00:05:59,950 --> 00:06:04,750
Your father, Leopold,
He is a violinist and composer.

77
00:06:05,580 --> 00:06:07,980
The Mozarts live modestly.

78
00:06:08,700 --> 00:06:10,460
Leopold works
to the court.

79
00:06:10,500 --> 00:06:13,480
He doesn't make much money.

80
00:06:13,860 --> 00:06:17,350
But Leopold was
incredibly ambitious.

81
00:06:18,460 --> 00:06:21,180
Leopold believes
that your daughter Nannerl

82
00:06:21,250 --> 00:06:23,050
He is a musical prodigy.

83
00:06:23,180 --> 00:06:26,180
She learns new pieces
effortlessly.

84
00:06:26,780 --> 00:06:30,480
So he lets her play
their own compositions.

85
00:06:31,900 --> 00:06:35,000
Wolfgang, aged five,
join them.

86
00:06:39,530 --> 00:06:40,820
It turns out,

87
00:06:40,860 --> 00:06:43,220
Mozart is not
just touching

88
00:06:43,260 --> 00:06:46,300
the parts of the book
from Nannerl,

89
00:06:46,340 --> 00:06:47,820
how, suddenly,

90
00:06:48,330 --> 00:06:49,950
Leopold finds out

91
00:06:50,030 --> 00:06:51,980
that Wolfgang
composed something of his own.

92
00:06:59,650 --> 00:07:05,750
He saw that boy
create your own piece.

93
00:07:05,940 --> 00:07:07,700
It's incredible.

94
00:07:13,530 --> 00:07:15,650
He has a natural talent.

95
00:07:21,780 --> 00:07:25,300
For Wolfgang, that was
as a joke.

96
00:07:25,340 --> 00:07:26,900
But for Leopold,

97
00:07:26,940 --> 00:07:30,980
it was a kind of passport
to the outside world.

98
00:07:34,900 --> 00:07:39,050
The Mozarts travel nearly 200 miles
to Vienna.

99
00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:43,680
Leopold succeeds
an audience

100
00:07:43,750 --> 00:07:45,950
with the empress
Maria Teresa,

101
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:49,700
one of the rulers
most powerful in Europe.

102
00:07:50,340 --> 00:07:54,000
He wants to show the empress
What your child is capable of.

103
00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:59,300
SCHÖNBRUNN PALACE,
VIENNA, OCTOBER 1762

104
00:08:02,060 --> 00:08:06,680
This presentation was
very valuable to Leopold.

105
00:08:07,130 --> 00:08:09,550
They enter another world,

106
00:08:09,660 --> 00:08:12,300
full of prestige
and money,

107
00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:15,000
of which Leopold
intends to be part of.

108
00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:19,000
If Wolfgang
make a good impression,

109
00:08:19,130 --> 00:08:22,050
this could change
the family's luck.

110
00:08:23,750 --> 00:08:29,050
The empress was divine
and very powerful.

111
00:08:30,080 --> 00:08:35,180
I can only imagine Leopold
scolding Mozart:

112
00:08:35,220 --> 00:08:36,900
"Stay still. Don't move."

113
00:08:36,980 --> 00:08:40,600
"You must bow
in the palace."

114
00:08:40,650 --> 00:08:43,000
"Remember this?"
"Yes, daddy."

115
00:08:44,050 --> 00:08:47,550
Then, that one arrives
extraordinary moment.

116
00:08:54,080 --> 00:08:56,880
Oh no! My God!
What you... ?

117
00:08:56,980 --> 00:09:00,050
He gives a kiss
on her cheek.

118
00:09:06,580 --> 00:09:11,880
So that little boy
sits down and starts playing.

119
00:09:21,950 --> 00:09:24,530
Mozart's talent
it was blinding...

120
00:09:25,100 --> 00:09:26,380
...from another world...

121
00:09:27,230 --> 00:09:29,140
for the empress
Maria Teresa.

122
00:09:29,180 --> 00:09:32,450
The whole experience
It's a revelation.

123
00:09:33,900 --> 00:09:36,000
She loved little Mozart.

124
00:09:39,180 --> 00:09:42,500
She must have been
fascinated,

125
00:09:42,630 --> 00:09:47,350
upon seeing a genius in the form
of this adorable boy.

126
00:09:47,700 --> 00:09:50,180
He is the center of attention.

127
00:09:51,530 --> 00:09:55,100
Mozart's faux pas
is quickly forgotten.

128
00:09:55,350 --> 00:09:58,150
His father, Leopold, leaves Vienna

129
00:09:58,230 --> 00:10:01,230
with a bonus
of 450 guilders,

130
00:10:01,380 --> 00:10:03,980
more than your annual salary.

131
00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:09,030
There is the feeling
that Leopold

132
00:10:09,220 --> 00:10:13,380
heard the tinkling
of the cash register.

133
00:10:15,860 --> 00:10:18,980
Wolfgang becomes the chicken
of the family's golden eggs.

134
00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:24,050
Leopold is obsessed
for the money.

135
00:10:24,580 --> 00:10:25,980
And it's no surprise,

136
00:10:26,020 --> 00:10:28,150
because if I hadn't
money,

137
00:10:28,180 --> 00:10:31,780
you were not an aristocrat,
So it was nobody.

138
00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:38,280
Encouraged by success
by Wolfgang,

139
00:10:38,380 --> 00:10:41,830
Leopold plans an extensive
tour across Europe.

140
00:10:42,700 --> 00:10:45,900
The whole family
will leave Salzburg

141
00:10:45,940 --> 00:10:48,750
to promote
the child prodigy.

142
00:10:55,350 --> 00:10:58,150
Leopold's fact
have planned

143
00:10:58,300 --> 00:11:03,000
a big tour was bold,
because only the rich traveled.

144
00:11:03,350 --> 00:11:06,550
At that time,
traveling was expensive and dangerous.

145
00:11:06,650 --> 00:11:08,750
But he noticed something

146
00:11:08,830 --> 00:11:11,050
which is obvious
for current musicians:

147
00:11:11,150 --> 00:11:13,130
you only make money
on tour.

148
00:11:15,300 --> 00:11:18,200
It wasn't about
just money.

149
00:11:18,620 --> 00:11:22,130
In the talent of your children,

150
00:11:22,550 --> 00:11:26,000
he saw the possibility
of social advancement

151
00:11:26,340 --> 00:11:28,260
and show the world

152
00:11:28,300 --> 00:11:31,550
something he never
I would have managed it alone.

153
00:11:32,500 --> 00:11:34,500
For little Mozart,

154
00:11:34,540 --> 00:11:39,080
that means a tour
across 88 European cities.

155
00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:43,830
And in each of them,
he is the star of the show.

156
00:11:45,330 --> 00:11:47,750
Imagine the pressure on him.

157
00:11:49,130 --> 00:11:53,050
The exhaustion, the travel,
and then the presentations.

158
00:11:53,630 --> 00:11:55,460
But Mozart doesn't complain.

159
00:11:55,500 --> 00:11:59,050
He longs for love
and by his father's approval.

160
00:12:01,180 --> 00:12:06,380
He only knew the world
under the guidance of his father.

161
00:12:16,300 --> 00:12:20,900
In 1764,
Mozart arrives in London.

162
00:12:22,050 --> 00:12:23,600
The family rents a room

163
00:12:23,680 --> 00:12:26,080
above a barbershop
at Westminster,

164
00:12:26,150 --> 00:12:28,580
in the heart of the neighborhood
of theaters.

165
00:12:32,700 --> 00:12:35,500
And it is in London that,
for the first time,

166
00:12:35,580 --> 00:12:39,000
Mozart has access
to a small orchestra.

167
00:12:40,350 --> 00:12:43,700
Wolfgang thinks:
"I'm going to write a symphony

168
00:12:43,740 --> 00:12:46,880
instead of piano pieces
for me and my sister."

169
00:12:48,330 --> 00:12:50,230
Leopold knows very well

170
00:12:50,330 --> 00:12:52,750
that nothing can attract
more public

171
00:12:52,850 --> 00:12:56,500
than a symphony composed
by an 8 year old child.

172
00:12:56,820 --> 00:13:02,620
SYMPHONY Nº1 IN E FLAT MAJOR,
1764

173
00:13:30,150 --> 00:13:33,080
I've performed this symphony
several times.

174
00:13:33,300 --> 00:13:34,940
She is incredible.

175
00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:39,480
It has three moves
for strings, horns and oboes.

176
00:13:40,650 --> 00:13:43,380
The structure is perfect!

177
00:14:05,060 --> 00:14:08,340
What I love about her
It's an impressive start,

178
00:14:08,380 --> 00:14:09,900
direct and firm opening,

179
00:14:09,940 --> 00:14:13,000
and how he develops it
with so much confidence.

180
00:14:17,230 --> 00:14:20,600
And all this
at eight years old!

181
00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:33,680
Mozart is the ultimate example
child prodigy...

182
00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:37,580
and demonstrated
an inexplicable ability

183
00:14:37,620 --> 00:14:39,460
that goes much further
your age

184
00:14:39,500 --> 00:14:42,620
and your own
personal experience.

185
00:14:42,660 --> 00:14:45,080
The family is required
everywhere.

186
00:14:46,150 --> 00:14:48,930
Mozart's 1st Symphony
looks too good

187
00:14:48,980 --> 00:14:50,450
to be true.

188
00:14:50,940 --> 00:14:53,500
Rumors spread
through London.

189
00:14:53,780 --> 00:14:56,820
Some say the boy is,
actually an adult

190
00:14:56,860 --> 00:14:59,700
with an illness
which makes him look like a child.

191
00:15:00,300 --> 00:15:03,050
Others say his father
composed the work.

192
00:15:04,140 --> 00:15:08,580
London society
I was suspicious of this talent.

193
00:15:08,650 --> 00:15:11,780
They think the child and his father
they are a scam.

194
00:15:11,900 --> 00:15:14,930
So they submit Mozart
to a series of tests.

195
00:15:16,330 --> 00:15:19,380
They consult
the Royal Society.

196
00:15:20,400 --> 00:15:23,650
Their vice president
receives the task of evaluating.

197
00:15:24,750 --> 00:15:28,050
Is Mozart a natural genius?

198
00:15:28,300 --> 00:15:30,330
There was no way he
get ready

199
00:15:30,430 --> 00:15:32,680
for what they would ask of you
to do.

200
00:15:33,140 --> 00:15:35,420
There was no way he could have known

201
00:15:35,460 --> 00:15:38,000
what would they ask of her
to do.

202
00:15:47,060 --> 00:15:50,100
They ask Mozart to play
at first glance, and it does.

203
00:15:50,260 --> 00:15:52,800
They ask him to improvise.

204
00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:55,080
Then they ask:
"Can you play

205
00:15:55,130 --> 00:15:57,400
if there is a blanket
about the keyboard?"

206
00:15:57,500 --> 00:15:59,780
And Mozart responds:
"Why, of course I can."

207
00:16:02,900 --> 00:16:05,330
He does things on the keyboard

208
00:16:05,380 --> 00:16:07,500
that look like
physically impossible.

209
00:16:08,150 --> 00:16:10,580
And their jaws drop.

210
00:16:12,020 --> 00:16:15,330
In fact, halfway through the test,
he sees the family cat,

211
00:16:15,420 --> 00:16:18,700
jump in and start
playing with the animal.

212
00:16:19,460 --> 00:16:23,280
It took forever
to get him back to the piano.

213
00:16:24,730 --> 00:16:28,250
This spectacularly demonstrates
who were dealing with a child.

214
00:16:34,620 --> 00:16:36,820
After careful deliberation,

215
00:16:36,860 --> 00:16:39,830
the Royal Society arrives
to a conclusion.

216
00:16:40,200 --> 00:16:42,580
The child is a genius.

217
00:16:47,060 --> 00:16:49,730
Mozart is a natural talent.

218
00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:53,030
And Leopold believes he knows

219
00:16:53,400 --> 00:16:55,530
how to deal with this prodigy.

220
00:16:59,180 --> 00:17:02,940
The boy wonder introduces himself
almost daily.

221
00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:07,280
And Leopold,
as a businessman and promoter,

222
00:17:07,330 --> 00:17:09,030
high bill.

223
00:17:15,100 --> 00:17:17,660
After more than a year
in London,

224
00:17:17,700 --> 00:17:21,050
the Mozarts need to find
a new audience.

225
00:17:22,180 --> 00:17:25,230
In the beginning, Leopold did
your children introduce themselves

226
00:17:25,300 --> 00:17:29,000
only before the high nobility.

227
00:17:29,580 --> 00:17:32,030
But, over time,
coexistence...

228
00:17:32,250 --> 00:17:35,780
generated a species
of disinterest.

229
00:17:42,030 --> 00:17:45,530
In the end, Leopold made Wolfgang
play in pubs

230
00:17:45,650 --> 00:17:49,980
to extract the most
of money possible

231
00:17:50,020 --> 00:17:52,230
of presentations.

232
00:17:57,050 --> 00:18:01,780
Mozart sees his father unfolding
to get money.

233
00:18:01,880 --> 00:18:05,100
Leopold is forced to take
more drastic measures

234
00:18:05,230 --> 00:18:09,350
and then the children
become an attraction.

235
00:18:10,030 --> 00:18:11,950
In "Swan and Hoop",

236
00:18:12,030 --> 00:18:15,030
you could see them playing
at lunch for half a shilling.

237
00:18:23,430 --> 00:18:25,800
They work nonstop,

238
00:18:26,380 --> 00:18:28,100
introducing yourself
daily.

239
00:18:28,750 --> 00:18:32,200
At that moment,
Leopold is obsessed

240
00:18:32,620 --> 00:18:36,950
for the idea that you can do
with Wolfgang

241
00:18:37,050 --> 00:18:39,800
whatever you want.

242
00:18:41,700 --> 00:18:45,350
SALZBURG, 12 YEARS LATER

243
00:18:47,480 --> 00:18:52,480
Mozart is back in his
hometown, Salzburg.

244
00:18:53,900 --> 00:18:55,500
But even as an adult,

245
00:18:55,540 --> 00:18:58,300
he continues
under the father's yoke.

246
00:18:59,080 --> 00:19:02,400
And fears that your days
of adventure and fame...

247
00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:04,500
have been left behind.

248
00:19:05,100 --> 00:19:07,620
Young Mozart lived,
in fact, two lives.

249
00:19:07,660 --> 00:19:10,580
He had that phase
fantastic in childhood,

250
00:19:10,650 --> 00:19:13,500
in which it was celebrated,
spoiled and flattered.

251
00:19:13,600 --> 00:19:17,450
Now, he realizes,
as you get older,

252
00:19:17,780 --> 00:19:21,530
that the puppy
can be admired,

253
00:19:21,850 --> 00:19:26,250
but the draft dog
must obey.

254
00:19:30,030 --> 00:19:33,250
Mozart understands that only
if you can be a prodigy

255
00:19:33,330 --> 00:19:34,450
as a child.

256
00:19:34,530 --> 00:19:39,050
After that, the person
He's just a talented adult.

257
00:19:39,130 --> 00:19:40,850
So you become stagnant.

258
00:19:40,930 --> 00:19:44,050
How to deal with this?
It is complicated.

259
00:19:44,180 --> 00:19:47,780
Mozart must have had
difficulty with that.

260
00:19:47,820 --> 00:19:51,100
The loss of looks
of admiration

261
00:19:51,230 --> 00:19:54,850
must have been painful
and confusing for him.

262
00:19:56,300 --> 00:19:59,050
"Now, let's get to our saga
with Salzburg!

263
00:19:59,180 --> 00:20:02,500
Do you know how much I hate
Salzburg.

264
00:20:03,080 --> 00:20:06,080
I have more hope
to be able to live happily

265
00:20:06,150 --> 00:20:08,980
and satisfied
anywhere else.

266
00:20:09,230 --> 00:20:13,980
In any case, Salzburg
There’s no place for my talent!”

267
00:20:15,130 --> 00:20:18,340
Mozart believes
that your talent

268
00:20:18,380 --> 00:20:21,650
transcends the rules
and traditional hierarchies.

269
00:20:22,220 --> 00:20:25,500
A wasted gift
with your boss.

270
00:20:26,180 --> 00:20:30,500
To the archbishop,
Mozart was his employee,

271
00:20:30,540 --> 00:20:33,060
therefore,
was on the same level

272
00:20:33,100 --> 00:20:35,550
that your cooks
and his chamberlain.

273
00:20:38,130 --> 00:20:41,400
But Mozart refuses
to accept your destiny.

274
00:20:45,500 --> 00:20:48,400
So he looks
Archbishop Colloredo

275
00:20:48,530 --> 00:20:51,100
and asks permission to travel.

276
00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:57,950
Hieronymus von Colloredo
reacts angrily and says:

277
00:20:58,000 --> 00:21:00,550
「No! You are my subordinate.」

278
00:21:00,650 --> 00:21:03,900
I pay you a salary.
You have a contract.

279
00:21:03,980 --> 00:21:06,980
Think you're going for a walk
across Europe again?"

280
00:21:07,140 --> 00:21:09,980
Mozart hated the archbishop

281
00:21:10,050 --> 00:21:14,230
because he treated him
like a servant, what he was!

282
00:21:16,580 --> 00:21:21,880
Ultimately, Colloredo agrees,
under one condition:

283
00:21:22,100 --> 00:21:25,400
the Mozarts must take
an unpaid leave.

284
00:21:26,620 --> 00:21:29,940
But Leopold needs
of this income.

285
00:21:29,980 --> 00:21:32,500
So he decides to stay.

286
00:21:35,980 --> 00:21:38,700
Mozart hits the road
again.

287
00:21:38,980 --> 00:21:42,880
and this time, there's just
your mother for company.

288
00:21:50,780 --> 00:21:56,950
He had already traveled countless
times, but never without his father.

289
00:22:01,430 --> 00:22:05,080
For a long time he felt
the shackles of childhood,

290
00:22:06,020 --> 00:22:10,300
but now it's his rules
that are worth.

291
00:22:10,680 --> 00:22:12,980
He can do it his way.

292
00:22:19,200 --> 00:22:23,480
He took a risk by leaving
from Salzburg.

293
00:22:23,900 --> 00:22:28,000
And if he had to leave,
There could only be one destiny,

294
00:22:28,100 --> 00:22:32,280
the biggest musical cut
from Europe: Mannheim.

295
00:22:36,530 --> 00:22:38,650
MANNHEIM PALACE, 1777

296
00:22:38,700 --> 00:22:43,930
The Mannheim Orchestra
She was the best of her time.

297
00:22:47,200 --> 00:22:50,180
The musicians rehearsed
exhaustively.

298
00:22:50,280 --> 00:22:54,280
If someone wanted to compose
something, it would be with her.

299
00:23:01,060 --> 00:23:03,900
Mozart was amazed.

300
00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:07,350
The Mannheim Orchestra
had clarinets,

301
00:23:07,400 --> 00:23:08,950
a new instrument,

302
00:23:09,140 --> 00:23:11,800
that Mozart
I didn't know yet.

303
00:23:11,880 --> 00:23:14,750
He writes to his father:
"They have clarinets!

304
00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:17,800
I wish we had
clarinets in Salzburg."

305
00:23:18,500 --> 00:23:21,900
The only people who can
command this orchestra

306
00:23:21,910 --> 00:23:24,300
They are the chapel masters.

307
00:23:26,300 --> 00:23:28,830
He wants to be
a chapel master,

308
00:23:28,980 --> 00:23:32,180
one of the musical leaders
from Mannheim.

309
00:23:33,130 --> 00:23:37,630
He is responsible for
family's financial future.

310
00:23:39,080 --> 00:23:43,030
With self-confidence
of a twenty year old young man,

311
00:23:43,480 --> 00:23:46,000
he thinks it will be a blast.

312
00:23:57,130 --> 00:24:00,250
The chapel masters
are named

313
00:24:00,330 --> 00:24:04,780
by the ruler of Mannheim,
the Voter.

314
00:24:05,650 --> 00:24:09,050
And Mozart wastes no time.

315
00:24:12,180 --> 00:24:17,330
After the concert ended,
he addresses the Elector.

316
00:24:17,850 --> 00:24:20,700
But there's so much noise
that Mozart doesn't know

317
00:24:20,740 --> 00:24:23,000
if the Voter heard
what he said.

318
00:24:23,330 --> 00:24:27,180
He is desperate to
dedicate yourself to something big,

319
00:24:27,220 --> 00:24:29,080
a new musical adventure.

320
00:24:33,080 --> 00:24:38,000
"I'm a composer and I was born
to be a chapel master.

321
00:24:38,730 --> 00:24:42,500
I cannot and must not bury
the talent

322
00:24:42,540 --> 00:24:46,500
what a merciful God
granted me.

323
00:24:46,750 --> 00:24:49,660
I can say it without arrogance,

324
00:24:49,700 --> 00:24:53,030
because I feel it now
more than ever."

325
00:24:56,130 --> 00:24:58,200
But the Voter decides

326
00:24:58,300 --> 00:25:02,080
that there is no place for Mozart
in your orchestra.

327
00:25:04,250 --> 00:25:06,230
It's your first
big failure.

328
00:25:06,380 --> 00:25:09,030
And he doesn't understand why.

329
00:25:14,250 --> 00:25:16,950
He is desolate.

330
00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:19,980
Why can't he
the position?

331
00:25:21,060 --> 00:25:23,330
Because he's 21!

332
00:25:23,660 --> 00:25:26,020
He never ruled
an orchestra.

333
00:25:26,060 --> 00:25:28,380
He never drove
an opera house.

334
00:25:28,450 --> 00:25:31,200
There's no reason to wait
for Mozart to get the job.

335
00:25:31,280 --> 00:25:33,380
He wasn't Mozart yet!

336
00:25:35,780 --> 00:25:39,030
Mozart gets deep
shaken by the rejection.

337
00:25:39,480 --> 00:25:43,630
Even so,
he stays in Mannheim

338
00:25:43,700 --> 00:25:46,130
to convince
their detractors.

339
00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:49,050
"Some who knew
my fame,

340
00:25:49,060 --> 00:25:51,400
they were kind and respectful.

341
00:25:51,700 --> 00:25:54,200
Others, who knew nothing
about me,

342
00:25:54,210 --> 00:25:58,900
They looked at me mockingly.

343
00:25:59,100 --> 00:26:02,240
They think that,
for being small and young,

344
00:26:02,250 --> 00:26:04,500
nothing grand or solemn
it can come from me.

345
00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:07,200
Soon they will see."

346
00:26:09,500 --> 00:26:15,000
Mozart believes that his talent
will always weigh in your favor.

347
00:26:16,180 --> 00:26:19,900
"These idiots don't know
How fabulous am I?"

348
00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:24,280
He feels these emotions
boiling inside.

349
00:26:24,400 --> 00:26:26,380
And how to convince them...

350
00:26:26,780 --> 00:26:29,650
that you are more important
than them,

351
00:26:29,730 --> 00:26:31,930
and that they
should they listen to him?

352
00:26:33,900 --> 00:26:36,300
As your debts
grows,

353
00:26:36,700 --> 00:26:39,380
Mozart runs after
of a job

354
00:26:39,500 --> 00:26:41,020
to pay the bills.

355
00:26:44,340 --> 00:26:47,030
Wolfgang knew he needed
earn money.

356
00:26:47,340 --> 00:26:50,750
So in Mannheim,
a vacancy arises.

357
00:26:52,200 --> 00:26:54,980
He's going to give piano lessons.

358
00:26:56,230 --> 00:27:00,030
It's extremely limiting
for someone so talented.

359
00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:07,820
Among Wolfgang's pupils,
was Aloysia Weber,

360
00:27:09,430 --> 00:27:12,130
daughter of a musician
of the court.

361
00:27:17,820 --> 00:27:20,300
The family has four daughters,

362
00:27:20,380 --> 00:27:23,300
and they are all musicians
wonderful.

363
00:27:33,130 --> 00:27:37,530
He falls madly in love
by Aloysia.

364
00:27:41,700 --> 00:27:45,530
And he decided to do
by Aloysia

365
00:27:45,630 --> 00:27:49,140
the star she
it was destined to be.

366
00:27:53,100 --> 00:27:57,050
Suddenly, Mozart discovered
his passion for teaching.

367
00:27:57,730 --> 00:27:59,700
He composes an aria,

368
00:27:59,780 --> 00:28:02,600
specifically for Aloysia.

369
00:28:03,420 --> 00:28:06,580
He never felt
so inspired.

370
00:28:07,650 --> 00:28:10,800
Until then, he composed
to give money to the family.

371
00:28:11,020 --> 00:28:14,220
Now the notes flowed
of your heart.

372
00:28:14,260 --> 00:28:15,980
Of your feelings.

373
00:28:16,080 --> 00:28:18,230
It was an incredible feeling.

374
00:28:19,150 --> 00:28:24,450
ALCANDRO, THE CONFESSED, 1778

375
00:28:44,180 --> 00:28:49,780


376
00:28:49,850 --> 00:28:55,400


377
00:28:55,480 --> 00:29:06,030

I like scrolling.

378
00:29:06,050 --> 00:29:08,700
Aloysia must have stayed
moved,

379
00:29:08,800 --> 00:29:13,500
upon seeing what Mozart
had composed for her.

380
00:29:25,100 --> 00:29:28,620
As if he said:
"That's how I feel about you."

381
00:29:40,800 --> 00:29:43,080
What a graceful melody!

382
00:29:43,380 --> 00:29:47,280
It is possible to see that he
composes for a voice he loves.

383
00:29:47,300 --> 00:29:49,650
You know, he tries
highlight this.

384
00:29:50,280 --> 00:29:51,730
Highlight her voice.

385
00:29:58,430 --> 00:30:02,830
He invites us to
this world of pleasure.

386
00:30:03,080 --> 00:30:04,850
It's a seductive piece.

387
00:30:29,130 --> 00:30:30,940
Sounds sexy.

388
00:30:30,980 --> 00:30:33,950
It's a pulsing sensation,

389
00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:37,800
be the heart beating,
be something else.

390
00:30:45,800 --> 00:30:49,700
By now, she should have
be in love with him.

391
00:31:05,400 --> 00:31:10,300
Then, in the spring of 1778,
Mozart is in love.

392
00:31:11,080 --> 00:31:13,980
He writes to his father:
"Guess what, dad?"

393
00:31:14,300 --> 00:31:17,000
"I have a girlfriend and she
She's a wonderful singer."

394
00:31:17,010 --> 00:31:22,680
And... in turn, Aloysia
is fascinated by Mozart.

395
00:31:23,500 --> 00:31:26,100
They do different
plans together.

396
00:31:26,110 --> 00:31:30,600
They would tour Italy,
Netherlands and Belgium.

397
00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:37,900
Here we begin to see Mozart
assuming his adult life,

398
00:31:38,000 --> 00:31:41,600
in a way that would have been
unthinkable until recently.

399
00:31:42,600 --> 00:31:46,800
This is Leopold's nightmare
becoming reality.

400
00:31:49,100 --> 00:31:53,900
"Dear son, I read your letter
with astonishment and horror.

401
00:31:56,300 --> 00:32:00,060
Your trip had
two objectives:

402
00:32:00,200 --> 00:32:03,490
or find a steady job,

403
00:32:03,500 --> 00:32:05,100
or, if that fails,

404
00:32:05,200 --> 00:32:09,600
go to an important place,
with good earning potential.

405
00:32:09,900 --> 00:32:11,200
But most of all,

406
00:32:11,400 --> 00:32:15,000
gain fame and prestige
before the world.

407
00:32:18,700 --> 00:32:21,600
Now, it depends
exclusively from you:

408
00:32:21,900 --> 00:32:24,950
stay in a confined room
with a woman,

409
00:32:24,960 --> 00:32:28,300
full of miserable children,
on a bag of straw;

410
00:32:28,380 --> 00:32:33,900
or, after leading a Christian life
of joy, honor and fame,

411
00:32:34,030 --> 00:32:37,100
die respected by all."

412
00:32:38,140 --> 00:32:42,180
Leopold cannot accept
your child is growing up.

413
00:32:43,400 --> 00:32:45,650
Therefore, Leopold writes:

414
00:32:45,780 --> 00:32:47,950
"I'll tell you who
can get married,

415
00:32:48,050 --> 00:32:49,430
who can fall in love with

416
00:32:49,500 --> 00:32:51,450
and where you're going to perform."

417
00:32:52,230 --> 00:32:57,300
And it says:
"Go to Paris. Without delay."

418
00:32:59,300 --> 00:33:00,780
What an idiot!

419
00:33:06,580 --> 00:33:09,820
Leopold may be hundreds
from miles away,

420
00:33:09,860 --> 00:33:12,230
but he's still in charge.

421
00:33:13,460 --> 00:33:16,980
So Mozart must leave
the woman he loves

422
00:33:17,050 --> 00:33:19,980
and travel again
across Europe,

423
00:33:20,020 --> 00:33:22,500
to earn money
for the family.

424
00:33:23,060 --> 00:33:25,080
Mozart is upset.

425
00:33:26,180 --> 00:33:28,140
He doesn't want to go to Paris.

426
00:33:28,250 --> 00:33:31,600
But he has his father,

427
00:33:31,700 --> 00:33:36,050
and do what he says
for a while longer.

428
00:33:43,620 --> 00:33:46,300
Wolfgang asks
permission to father

429
00:33:46,340 --> 00:33:48,380
to go to France alone.

430
00:33:49,230 --> 00:33:51,580
But he took a beating.

431
00:33:53,220 --> 00:33:55,940
Wolfgang says: "Mommy can
return home.

432
00:33:55,980 --> 00:33:58,050
I can handle this on my own."

433
00:33:58,100 --> 00:34:00,030
Leopold says:
"No, you're just a kid.

434
00:34:00,100 --> 00:34:02,930
You can't do this alone.
Go quickly!”

435
00:34:05,060 --> 00:34:08,380
The trip to Paris
lasts nine days.

436
00:34:14,580 --> 00:34:18,060
They stay
in a rundown neighborhood,

437
00:34:18,100 --> 00:34:20,630
next to the Marais district.

438
00:34:21,430 --> 00:34:23,580
It's the closest
who can pay

439
00:34:23,620 --> 00:34:27,680
from the center of the music scene,
the Tuileries Palace.

440
00:34:33,200 --> 00:34:36,180
But things
they don't start well.

441
00:34:37,100 --> 00:34:39,000
Mozart is horrified
with Paris.

442
00:34:39,380 --> 00:34:41,880
He can't stand the place.
You can't understand him.

443
00:34:42,080 --> 00:34:46,180
It's a dirty city
and very expensive.

444
00:34:46,580 --> 00:34:49,050
He thinks:
"What place is this?"

445
00:34:50,820 --> 00:34:55,750
Mozart's mother, Maria Anna,
struggle to adapt.

446
00:34:57,300 --> 00:34:59,650
She doesn't speak French.

447
00:35:00,420 --> 00:35:02,450
She finds the city hostile.

448
00:35:03,330 --> 00:35:04,950
And they're out of money.

449
00:35:06,780 --> 00:35:09,020
But Mozart has a mission.

450
00:35:12,460 --> 00:35:15,980
Wolfgang spends the whole day
looking for a job,

451
00:35:17,080 --> 00:35:19,980
trying to get in grace
from the right people.

452
00:35:20,280 --> 00:35:23,980
Meanwhile, the poor
Maria Anna is left alone.

453
00:35:26,830 --> 00:35:30,900
Mozart is not around.
She feels alone.

454
00:35:31,380 --> 00:35:37,250
The place is dark and cold.
She doesn't go out on the street.

455
00:35:40,230 --> 00:35:44,730
"As for my own life,
She is not pleasant at all.

456
00:35:45,660 --> 00:35:48,700
I spend all day sitting
alone in the room,

457
00:35:48,800 --> 00:35:51,030
as if he were in prison.

458
00:35:53,100 --> 00:35:56,050
I don't see the sun all day.

459
00:35:56,600 --> 00:35:58,780
With great difficulty,

460
00:35:58,850 --> 00:36:02,130
I can knit a little
in the dim light.

461
00:36:02,780 --> 00:36:04,680
This is so sad."

462
00:36:09,930 --> 00:36:14,100
It's hard to say whether Wolfgang
realizes that.

463
00:36:14,550 --> 00:36:17,950
And of course your mother
I would never have complained.

464
00:36:23,250 --> 00:36:27,580
But for Mozart, Paris
it is a place of opportunities.

465
00:36:27,980 --> 00:36:31,000
And he arrived
at an opportune time.

466
00:36:31,950 --> 00:36:34,540
He didn't like the city,

467
00:36:34,580 --> 00:36:37,600
but discovered that there,

468
00:36:37,830 --> 00:36:40,430
he could compose
however you wanted.

469
00:36:51,100 --> 00:36:53,100
Paris is changing.

470
00:36:55,280 --> 00:36:59,930
The "Concert Spirituel"
It's a new and radical idea.

471
00:37:00,260 --> 00:37:01,740
For the first time,

472
00:37:01,780 --> 00:37:04,180
paying visitors
you can listen to music

473
00:37:04,200 --> 00:37:05,950
at public events.

474
00:37:07,060 --> 00:37:09,630
Mozart sees the opportunity
to compose

475
00:37:09,700 --> 00:37:12,700
not just for a patron
aristocrat,

476
00:37:12,800 --> 00:37:15,050
but also for the people.

477
00:37:15,230 --> 00:37:20,100
The "Concert Spirituel"
performed concerts

478
00:37:20,280 --> 00:37:24,150
for anyone who could pay
the entry.

479
00:37:24,300 --> 00:37:26,950
That's the specialty
by Mozart.

480
00:37:31,180 --> 00:37:34,530
The musical director is
Joseph Legros,

481
00:37:34,630 --> 00:37:37,030
a star
of Parisian opera.

482
00:37:37,730 --> 00:37:39,100
For the first time,

483
00:37:39,180 --> 00:37:42,680
Mozart talks about a musician
for musician.

484
00:37:44,750 --> 00:37:48,400
And indeed he finds
someone who listens to you.

485
00:37:48,730 --> 00:37:52,450
He receives the order
to compose a symphony.

486
00:37:55,900 --> 00:37:59,000
I think Mozart
felt great relief.

487
00:37:59,420 --> 00:38:02,000
Your way there
it wasn't easy.

488
00:38:02,340 --> 00:38:06,800
But now he has it again
the feeling of: "I did it."

489
00:38:09,350 --> 00:38:11,600
Young Mozart

490
00:38:11,680 --> 00:38:16,180
I had already experienced
its share of disappointments.

491
00:38:16,280 --> 00:38:19,650
But now, when starting
the rehearsals in Paris,

492
00:38:19,750 --> 00:38:22,750
the stars finally
will align.

493
00:38:23,730 --> 00:38:25,140
In the "Paris Symphony",

494
00:38:25,200 --> 00:38:31,680
Mozart had the biggest orchestra
with which I had already played:

495
00:38:31,750 --> 00:38:35,380
21 violins, 8 cellos,
4 violas, 4 double basses

496
00:38:35,450 --> 00:38:37,300
and a complete section
of blows.

497
00:38:37,530 --> 00:38:43,030
Now he could finally
show what he was capable of.

498
00:38:45,650 --> 00:38:49,080
The Spirituel Concert
will allow you to do

499
00:38:49,180 --> 00:38:52,280
whatever he wants
with an orchestra.

500
00:38:52,330 --> 00:38:53,900
There are no limits.

501
00:38:56,400 --> 00:39:01,100
He demonstrated great wit,
when he composed the piece,

502
00:39:01,300 --> 00:39:05,700
when thinking about the paying public,
at the hearing.

503
00:39:15,200 --> 00:39:20,430
SYMPHONY NO. 31 IN D MAJOR,
1778

504
00:39:23,060 --> 00:39:24,950
The opening is exciting.

505
00:39:25,100 --> 00:39:28,100
It's not a smooth start,
the romantic type.

506
00:39:28,150 --> 00:39:29,830
It starts suddenly.

507
00:40:10,450 --> 00:40:12,140
His Paris Symphony

508
00:40:12,180 --> 00:40:14,500
start with these
"cup d'archet",

509
00:40:14,600 --> 00:40:16,300
or bow strikes.

510
00:40:27,660 --> 00:40:31,850
Emphatic chords logo
at first, like a whistle.

511
00:40:45,620 --> 00:40:48,740
Listeners are captivated.

512
00:40:48,750 --> 00:40:50,340
Mozart turns around

513
00:40:50,380 --> 00:40:52,850
and see them smiling
and applauding.

514
00:41:12,000 --> 00:41:14,300
As if he were
showing off.

515
00:41:14,900 --> 00:41:17,300
Can you hear it in the music
the joy

516
00:41:17,310 --> 00:41:20,650
of what can be accomplished
with a large orchestra.

517
00:41:20,660 --> 00:41:23,200
As if he had changed
a family car

518
00:41:23,210 --> 00:41:25,290
by a racing car

519
00:41:25,300 --> 00:41:28,000
and wanted to taste
every second.

520
00:41:40,540 --> 00:41:43,080
But a few days
after the premiere,

521
00:41:43,180 --> 00:41:46,800
Mozart's mother
becomes seriously ill.

522
00:41:50,100 --> 00:41:53,000
When Wolfgang
finally realize

523
00:41:53,100 --> 00:41:56,200
how sick your mother is,

524
00:41:56,700 --> 00:41:59,630
he drops everything
to stay with her.

525
00:42:00,630 --> 00:42:03,050
But it's too late.

526
00:42:05,230 --> 00:42:09,030
Mozart's mother's health
it only got worse.

527
00:42:10,540 --> 00:42:12,180
She went into a coma.

528
00:42:12,620 --> 00:42:15,600
Mozart is next to her.

529
00:42:16,300 --> 00:42:19,030
He sees her give
your last breaths.

530
00:42:22,220 --> 00:42:24,020
He adores his mother.

531
00:42:25,480 --> 00:42:27,580
And he doesn't know what to do.

532
00:42:31,130 --> 00:42:35,080
And now, he is
suddenly alone.

533
00:42:37,580 --> 00:42:40,460
He writes
a touching letter

534
00:42:40,500 --> 00:42:46,000
to a friend in Salzburg,
to break the news.

535
00:42:47,100 --> 00:42:49,300
“Grief with me, my friend.

536
00:42:50,880 --> 00:42:53,930
This was the saddest day
of my life.

537
00:42:55,740 --> 00:43:00,800
I need to tell you
that my mother passed away.

538
00:43:01,400 --> 00:43:03,550
She went out like a light.

539
00:43:04,050 --> 00:43:07,950
At that moment,
I wanted to leave with her."

540
00:43:14,250 --> 00:43:15,600
Damn!

541
00:43:16,100 --> 00:43:20,030
I think he can barely do it
believe in this letter.

542
00:43:21,940 --> 00:43:25,950
Mozart doesn't know how to count
the news to his father.

543
00:43:29,480 --> 00:43:33,020
It takes five days
to find the words.

544
00:43:39,620 --> 00:43:41,050
"So it's all over.

545
00:43:41,600 --> 00:43:43,180
It was God's will.

546
00:43:43,830 --> 00:43:46,900
It was destined that she
sacrificed himself for his son.

547
00:43:47,500 --> 00:43:50,200
If your mother had come back
from Mannheim home,

548
00:43:50,300 --> 00:43:52,100
She wouldn't have died."

549
00:43:53,600 --> 00:43:57,000
The father blames him
for the death of his mother.

550
00:43:57,700 --> 00:44:01,100
Cruel people love to do
emotional blackmail.

551
00:44:02,700 --> 00:44:04,700
Leopold insinuates

552
00:44:04,780 --> 00:44:07,940
that Wolfgang didn't take care of
properly from his mother,

553
00:44:07,980 --> 00:44:10,300
and that he had failed.

554
00:44:10,400 --> 00:44:12,840
And that seed,
I'm sorry to say,

555
00:44:12,850 --> 00:44:15,290
will grow
over the next few years.

556
00:44:15,300 --> 00:44:17,200
He will always relive this,

557
00:44:17,210 --> 00:44:20,400
who left his mother
languish in Paris.

558
00:44:27,940 --> 00:44:31,700
He is 22 years old,
and, for the first time in my life,

559
00:44:31,740 --> 00:44:35,950
Mozart is alone,
and without parental guidance.

560
00:44:36,500 --> 00:44:39,430
He seeks solace at the piano,

561
00:44:39,700 --> 00:44:43,050
the instrument that your mother
heard him play for the first time,

562
00:44:43,330 --> 00:44:47,650
the sound of your innocent childhood.

563
00:44:48,480 --> 00:44:51,450
I see a person
who is suffering a lot.

564
00:44:51,740 --> 00:44:55,420
Now he seeks to hold on
to anything

565
00:44:55,460 --> 00:44:57,900
that do it
feel firm and safe.

566
00:44:57,950 --> 00:45:01,450
When he plays the pianoforte,

567
00:45:01,880 --> 00:45:03,660
harmony reigns.

568
00:45:03,700 --> 00:45:07,500
That he can trust.
This is a real thing.

569
00:45:07,580 --> 00:45:09,550
This is something tangible,

570
00:45:09,630 --> 00:45:13,020
when the rest
seems to be falling apart.

571
00:45:14,150 --> 00:45:19,130
PIANO SONATA No. 8
IN A MINOR, 1778

572
00:45:45,980 --> 00:45:49,180
He seems to remember this,

573
00:45:49,220 --> 00:45:53,100
when he played, as a boy,
in front of his mother.

574
00:45:55,600 --> 00:45:59,950
An image of this woman
comes to mind.

575
00:46:00,530 --> 00:46:03,380
I can see her sitting,

576
00:46:03,420 --> 00:46:05,300
loving the boy

577
00:46:05,450 --> 00:46:08,330
and doing the best for him.

578
00:46:09,630 --> 00:46:12,050
He wanted to honor that.

579
00:46:20,130 --> 00:46:22,300
You can feel
repentance,

580
00:46:22,340 --> 00:46:25,200
that I should be careful
better than mom.

581
00:46:43,300 --> 00:46:47,850
It's a wonderful mix
of beautiful memories...

582
00:46:49,860 --> 00:46:52,980
...and the end of them.
That's what I hear.

583
00:47:03,880 --> 00:47:07,580
Then things get worse
for Mozart.

584
00:47:08,540 --> 00:47:12,100
Leopold writes, claiming
that his son owes him money

585
00:47:12,140 --> 00:47:16,130
and that he must return to Salzburg
to pay the debt.

586
00:47:18,630 --> 00:47:22,700
"I hope that after death
misplaced from his mother in Paris,

587
00:47:22,740 --> 00:47:24,860
you too
don't want to load

588
00:47:24,900 --> 00:47:27,060
the death of his father
in consciousness.

589
00:47:27,300 --> 00:47:31,050
Only you can save me from
death, if God so desires.

590
00:47:31,180 --> 00:47:34,480
I want to live a few more years
and pay my debts.

591
00:47:34,550 --> 00:47:36,450
So if you want,

592
00:47:36,530 --> 00:47:39,430
you can hit your head
on the wall."

593
00:47:41,280 --> 00:47:44,950
SALZBURG, 1779

594
00:47:48,300 --> 00:47:51,700
It's like "Spell of Time"
for Mozart.

595
00:47:51,740 --> 00:47:54,250
He simply
can't get out of there.

596
00:47:57,730 --> 00:48:01,100
Mozart is depressed
and mourning.

597
00:48:02,180 --> 00:48:04,460
He's out of his mind.

598
00:48:04,500 --> 00:48:07,660
Once again,
he goes back to his father

599
00:48:07,700 --> 00:48:10,300
and to the archbishop.

600
00:48:11,100 --> 00:48:15,900
Mozart will spend the next
two years imprisoned in Salzburg,

601
00:48:17,000 --> 00:48:20,100
eager to get rid
from your boss...

602
00:48:20,700 --> 00:48:23,030
Archbishop Colloredo.

603
00:48:27,100 --> 00:48:29,570
Mozart showed himself
disobedient.

604
00:48:29,580 --> 00:48:32,600
And that was unacceptable.

605
00:48:33,000 --> 00:48:37,770
Colloredo is always
pulling Mozart's ear,

606
00:48:37,780 --> 00:48:39,200
so to speak,

607
00:48:39,210 --> 00:48:42,590
as if it were
a naughty student.

608
00:48:42,600 --> 00:48:46,400
And Mozart grumbles, furious.

609
00:48:48,180 --> 00:48:51,400
He's in Salzburg,
stagnant.

610
00:48:51,600 --> 00:48:54,500
So, kind of by luck,

611
00:48:54,510 --> 00:48:58,600
the Elector of Mannheim asks
let him write an opera,

612
00:48:58,610 --> 00:49:01,300
and it is exactly
what he wants to do.

613
00:49:01,310 --> 00:49:07,000
Opera encompasses so much
music and theater.

614
00:49:07,010 --> 00:49:09,800
She demands everything
of a composer.

615
00:49:09,930 --> 00:49:13,730
It is the most popular musical genre
prestige that exists.

616
00:49:13,800 --> 00:49:18,450
Write an opera
grand and serious

617
00:49:18,460 --> 00:49:21,690
was the greatest ambition of a
composer at that time.

618
00:49:21,700 --> 00:49:25,400
He writes what today
is considered

619
00:49:25,410 --> 00:49:30,100
his first "mature" opera:
Idomeneo.

620
00:49:42,300 --> 00:49:46,100
Mozart was separated
of your first love,

621
00:49:47,000 --> 00:49:49,050
his father mistreated him...

622
00:49:49,600 --> 00:49:51,780
and he lost his mother.

623
00:49:54,800 --> 00:49:57,390
Now,
on the grand opera stage,

624
00:49:57,400 --> 00:50:00,500
he can overwhelm everyone
their human dramas.

625
00:50:07,500 --> 00:50:10,400
Mozart is devoted to Idomeneo.

626
00:50:10,630 --> 00:50:14,200
He edits the libretto,
composes the music...

627
00:50:16,700 --> 00:50:19,950
And also draws
the scenarios.

628
00:50:20,730 --> 00:50:24,950
He has total
creative responsibility.

629
00:50:26,900 --> 00:50:29,800
Idomeneo premieres in Munich,

630
00:50:29,950 --> 00:50:33,630
a few days after the 25th
Mozart's birthday.

631
00:50:34,260 --> 00:50:36,480
As the premiere
approaches,

632
00:50:36,550 --> 00:50:39,030
he brims with confidence.

633
00:50:39,550 --> 00:50:41,220
"My dear father,

634
00:50:41,260 --> 00:50:43,680
the rehearsal ran
perfectly.

635
00:50:44,000 --> 00:50:48,100
I can't say how much everyone
they were happy and surprised.

636
00:50:48,110 --> 00:50:50,600
But I didn't expect
something else."

637
00:50:53,220 --> 00:50:54,460
At that time,

638
00:50:54,500 --> 00:50:58,300
Mozart no longer had
doubts about yourself.

639
00:50:58,340 --> 00:51:02,030
He knew his talent
and its value.

640
00:51:02,200 --> 00:51:04,930
He feared no one.

641
00:51:10,500 --> 00:51:13,690
Everything he does
at this moment

642
00:51:13,700 --> 00:51:17,700
It's a reaction
to your worldview.

643
00:51:19,200 --> 00:51:22,000
He learns that,
or you are controlled...

644
00:51:23,100 --> 00:51:25,000
...or you control.

645
00:51:25,700 --> 00:51:27,600
There is no middle ground.

646
00:51:49,280 --> 00:51:53,600
IDOMENEO, 1781

647
00:51:57,740 --> 00:52:01,050
Finally,
he is his own master.

648
00:52:27,600 --> 00:52:33,030
"Idomeneo" tells the story
of a king and his son.

649
00:52:42,580 --> 00:52:45,700
The young prince is exiled

650
00:52:45,740 --> 00:52:48,580
for reasons
that he doesn't understand.

651
00:52:55,850 --> 00:53:01,350
This family saga remembers
Mozart and his father.

652
00:53:03,600 --> 00:53:05,390
It also contains, perhaps,

653
00:53:05,400 --> 00:53:09,000
the most musical piece
extraordinary by Mozart:

654
00:53:09,000 --> 00:53:10,400
the quartet.

655
00:53:41,500 --> 00:53:47,000
In the quartet, the characters
reflect on their loss.

656
00:53:47,100 --> 00:53:50,300
They will never see again
your son.

657
00:53:57,500 --> 00:54:03,000
All of this is wrapped
in a song full of emotion.

658
00:54:21,800 --> 00:54:25,000
And they all leave
from different perspectives.

659
00:54:25,100 --> 00:54:28,240
And he manages to intertwine
all of this

660
00:54:28,250 --> 00:54:31,300
in a plot in which everything does
perfect musical sense.

661
00:54:31,310 --> 00:54:34,900
He uses voices almost
as four instruments.

662
00:54:51,600 --> 00:54:55,730
It's one of the best quartets
already composed for opera.

663
00:54:57,050 --> 00:55:01,030
The drama hits
its boiling point.

664
00:55:05,200 --> 00:55:08,100
The result is a quartet

665
00:55:08,200 --> 00:55:12,500
full of pain,
sadness and beauty.

666
00:55:21,550 --> 00:55:24,380
I don't know how he did it.

667
00:55:30,030 --> 00:55:33,600
The opera ends with
a glorious coronation.

668
00:55:36,400 --> 00:55:39,600
The gods allow the young man
prince come home,

669
00:55:39,610 --> 00:55:44,700
with the condition that his father
give up the crown.

670
00:56:01,100 --> 00:56:05,900
Mozart's own father
attend the premiere.

671
00:56:06,400 --> 00:56:09,800
I wonder how Leopold
You must have felt...

672
00:56:10,000 --> 00:56:12,290
An opera about a father

673
00:56:12,300 --> 00:56:14,800
who renounces the crown
in favor of the son.

674
00:56:15,100 --> 00:56:17,990
Because, there,
Wolfgang is crowned...

675
00:56:18,000 --> 00:56:21,400
as the great composer
that we know today.

676
00:56:28,800 --> 00:56:34,800
"Idomeneo" is considered,
immediately, extraordinary.

677
00:56:35,600 --> 00:56:38,300
It's a game changer
for Wolfgang.

678
00:56:41,300 --> 00:56:44,800
Somewhere inside it
lies the ability to say:

679
00:56:45,100 --> 00:56:48,500
"No! I'll show you
the middle finger.

680
00:56:48,510 --> 00:56:51,900
I will be Mozart,
whether you like it or not."

681
00:56:59,700 --> 00:57:02,490
A father should receive this,

682
00:57:02,500 --> 00:57:05,840
when your child
is so famous and acclaimed,

683
00:57:05,850 --> 00:57:08,290
with feelings
contradictory.

684
00:57:08,300 --> 00:57:10,450
On the one hand,
there was great pride.

685
00:57:10,460 --> 00:57:15,000
On the other hand, the feeling
of own failure,

686
00:57:15,200 --> 00:57:19,200
that you will never reach
what your child has achieved.

687
00:57:19,210 --> 00:57:23,400
You know, pride and envy
paternal.

688
00:57:24,500 --> 00:57:25,820
It's lethal!

689
00:57:29,200 --> 00:57:32,600
The child prodigy grew up.

690
00:57:34,700 --> 00:57:37,300
It gives you the confidence...

691
00:57:38,000 --> 00:57:41,080
to do the following:

692
00:57:41,100 --> 00:57:43,890
move away from your father,
of Archbishop Colloredo

693
00:57:43,900 --> 00:57:45,200
and Salzburg.

694
00:57:45,300 --> 00:57:48,100
Get away from everything.
Find yourself.

695
00:57:56,330 --> 00:57:59,050
