WARNING!

This is not a surf piece!

If you're looking for links to Tasmania and Tokyo, keep going. This is an entertaining and educational (shhh, don't tell the kids) story about Mozart's life and times. Whether you appreciate his music or not, you will appreciate the talent that this child prodigy was born with. We'll give you some links at the beginning and end to acquire the musical Helper Applications needed to enjoy the music we've included, and to related locations, but once you're into the story we've only provided links to story activities.

So if you've got somewhere to go, set a bookmark and come on back when you've got some time to enjoy and explore Mozart's story. If you're a parent, go get the kids and share some quality time with them. If you are a kid, go get your parents and show them a thing or two about the Internet. We wrote this as an educational piece, but we're not sure who'll be teaching who...

We want to keep this story alive so we're seeking your feedback and collaboration. Some of the story was provided by local students for class projects. If you'd like to contribute, drop us a line and we'll try to coordinate it. We've tried to be historically accurate, but our research has turned up various versions of the incidents of his life. To make it interesting, we've chosen the versions we thought you'd enjoy the most. If you've got any corrections, let us know that too and we'll take care of it.
