What’s this I heard about a new piece by Mozart? On September 20, French news agency Agence France-Presse reported that a library in Leipzig, Germany, unearthed a 260-year-old string trio composition that was written by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.
The piece is named “Ganz kleine nachtmusik” (translated to “Very little night music”) and was performed for the first time in public on Thursday September 19, 2024.
The new song was reportedly written when Mozart still a teen. There hasn’t been a video or audio recording of the song. But if his other music is any good indicator, it’s likely that the 12-minute piece is wonderful. There is a planned performance of the song at the Leipzig Opera.
