It already caught on soon after Mozart's death, as witnessed by the numerous handwritten copies and prints.

At that time Mozart wanted to make his way as a prominent piano teac...

Classical. As astonishing as it might sound, Mozart was already composing piano sonatas (K. 6-9) at the age of seven. It is wonderfully fresh and varied music. Henle has already published Urtext editions of these four sonatas in the version for piano andviolin (HN 1077). As far as they are aware these have never been published solely as piano sonatas, even though Mozart described them thus in the title and they were assuredly played as such. Whilst the added violin provides tonal enrichment, it c...
Classical. In 1764 the eight-year-old Mozart wrote the Sonatas K. 10-15 in London. Leopold Mozart was only able to understand his son's musical genius in terms of it being a God-given wonder: "That my boy [...] knows all of this with his 8 years that could be expected of a man of forty years. In short: whoever has not seen or heard it, cannot believe it". According to the title page the six sonatas can either be played as piano trios, violin sonatas or simply piano solo. As Henle has already publ...

Yes, this is *that* Friedrich Nietzsche. Music was always an important aspect of Friedrich Nietzsche's life.

Seven years later, he met Wagner for the first time, and an intimate and mutually inspiring relationship developed that would influence and define every aspect of his personal and professional life from that point. This collection, e...
