3.Wolfgang
Amadeus Mozart
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (January 27,
1756-December 5, 1791) is
considered one of the greatest musical geniuses of all time, authoring
over 600
works before his premature death at 35.
Mozart showed remarkable
musical aptitude early in life. Recognizing his enormous talent, his
father
devoted most of his time to his son's musical education, and taking him
on
concert tours throughout Europe.
In his rest of life, Mozart
made his living performing and selling his compositions and giving
music
lessons. But, despite his musical talent he had difficulty earning
sufficient
income to support a family. He died in poverty.
Mozart excelled at nearly
every kind of musical composition.
He wrote 22 operas, over 40
symphonies, and
many others compositions. Much of Mozart's work is still performed and
enjoyed
today.
4.William
Shakespeare
illiam Shakespeare
(baptized 26 April 1564 – 23 April 1616) was an English poet and
playwright,
now widely regarded as the greatest writer in the English language and
the
world's preeminent dramatist. He is often called England's
national poet and the
"Bard of Avon" (or simply "The Bard"). His surviving works
consist of 38 plays, 154 sonnets, two long narrative poems, and several
other
poems created between 1591-1593. His plays have been translated into
every
major living language and are performed more often than those of any
other
playwright.
Amazingly,
no
original manuscripts survive reflecting the fact that many of these
manuscripts
were written purely for performance and were not regarded as pieces of
literary
work. There is also no general consensus on when all the plays were
first
performed.
