| All it, appear, easily could turn heads to young actors, but anything similar has not occurred. It was promoted to no small degree by the father. The skilled teacher, it well understood that as musical endowments of its pupils are great, without persistent, persevering work of serious results it not to reach. "-х=ш I are presented by such talent, - Leopold, - that, besides a parental debt wrote in one of the letters, I would offer all for the sake of their education. Each lost minute - is lost forever … But you know that my children have got used to work. If something could distract them from work - I would die with уюЁ ".
In the end of 1766 Mozart's family with triumph has returned to native Salzburg, having stayed abroad almost 3,5 years. Immediately after returning home the father has recommenced with children of lessons on a harpsichord and a violin. Besides, they seriously studied a musical composition, arithmetics, history and geography. Wolfgang also mastered Latin and the Italian language which knowledge for the musician was in those days obligatory. .
In 1767 Vienna prepared for court celebrations on the occasion of wedding young ertsgertsogini Marias-Iozefy with the Neapolitan king. Wishing to take advantage of an opportunity, Leopold has left with a family in capital of Austria. But the trip has appeared unsuccessful - in Vienna terrible epidemic of a smallpox raged. It was necessary to take out hastily children from a city and to run to Moravia. But was already late: both the brother, and sister were ill with a smallpox in the heavy form. At Wolfgang eyes have been amazed, it was threatened with blindness. Only in 10 days sight began to be restored.
Only in January of next year the family has returned to Vienna, but interest to Mozart's game from outside capital public now has considerably cooled down. Very few people invited them in the salons, and only thanks to efforts of friends of Leopold children managed to act at court. Wolfgang's compositions were pleasant to emperor Joseph II, and it has expressed desire to hear one of its new products on a scene of the Viennese opera theatre. However local musicians have counted the wonderful child as the strong contender and in every possible way interfered with its advancement. Therefore the Viennese spectator and could not see an opera under the play "¤Ёш=тюЁэр яЁюё=ѕ°ър" - on a city hearings that ostensibly Mozart's all compositions are written by his father whom, wishing to make the son career have spread, gives out the works for its creations. The theatre has refused to the young composer statement. It was defeat, but Wolfgang and did not think to despair. After its returning to Salzburg the archbishop who was taking very much to heart successes and afflictions, has ordered to musicians of the chapel to study and stage an opera rejected by Vienna.
