HALIDONMUSIC | Top 3 Best Mozart Pranks @HALIDONMUSIC | Uploaded September 2024 | Updated October 2024, 1 day ago.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart had a reputation as a prankster largely due to his playful, mischievous personality, which he often expressed in both his personal life and his work. Despite being one of history’s greatest musical geniuses, Mozart was known for his sense of humor, sometimes bordering on the outrageous, especially by the standards of 18th-century high society. Here are a few reasons behind this reputation:
1. He wrote a piece titled “A Musical Joke,” where passages were played out of tune to mock incompetent composers.
2. He hid backstage and played a glockenspiel part incorrectly during a performance of The Magic Flute to prank the main actor.
3. He wrote a piece called ‘Leck mich im Arsch’ (we’ll let you translate that 🫢).
Music:
Piano Sonata No. 11 in A Major, K. 331: III. Alla Turca
Luke Faulkner, piano
