Mozart at Court.
The following interesting episode in
the career of the great composer, Wolfging Mozart, which occurred when he
was achild, we find in the N. Y. Musical Review, translated from the German
of Rad.
The apartments of the Queen at Versailles, were open, They formed a series of fifteen large saloons, which were
lighted by more than seven hundred
candles, shining from candelabras, and
chandeliers, wrought in the most artistic
style, and shedding their light upon .
the finest works of sculpture and painting, upon vases, clocks, tapestries of the
most elegant and costly character. Morover, all these luxurics were multiplied
by immense and most beautiful mirrors
It will repay perusal :
in gilt frames, which covered the walls.
And yet these private rooms of the .
Queen might have been called simple, .
compared with those occupied by the
Marchivness of Pompadour, just asthe
appearance of the Queen herself, surrounded by the princesses in the above
apartments compared with that of the .
Marchioness, covered with diamonds,
and surrounded by the ministers and
high dignitaries of the country, who
looked and acted like the real Queen ;
while the latter, Maria of France, the
unhappy daughter of Stanislaus Leszinsky, seemed to be east down, but resigned.
The King had not yet made his appearance ; and the Marchioness, as weli
as her aristocratic minions, indulged in
that frivolous but intellectual conversation which was the fashion of that time.
But even when the worn out King came
into the apay' ment, and talkeu saceording to the court ceremonial for a quarter of an hour to the Queen, the spiteful
Marchioness continued the conversation
to the terror ofall present, but showing .
by this the immense influence she exercised overthe broken spiit of Louis
pas
At last the conversation became general, and the King sat down at the eardtable, giving at the same time orders to
let the Mozarts, who were waiting in the .
aute-chamber, make their appearance.
The children commenced playing a
very difficult and brilliant duo, and although they did this as usual, in a very
superior manner, nobody listenel to
them but the Queen, the Princess M’ine .
Victoire, and Countess Such a}
reception they had certainly not expected. Nannei felt the tears start in hin .
eyes, and Wolfgang was so indignant .
that none but M’me Victoire had found
a word of encouragement for them, that
he said to his father :
“Come, Papa, let us go; they do not
understand music.”
The vice conductor tried in vain to
calm the indignation of the litle virtuoso
who found himself burt in that which
was dearest to him, his pride as an artist.
“Well,” said at last the father, “let
us go; butdo you know whatthe world
will say : The Mozarts did not succeed
at the court of Versailles? If I was in
your place, I would play once more,
and force, by the beauty of my performance, the King, as well as the whole
‘Tesse.
. fore by the player.
i child,
court to listen to me.”
“You are right !” exclaimed the boy
with brightened eyes, and at once went
up to the King, saying:
“Will your Majesty give me a theme,
upon which I can improvise 2,’
Louis, surprised, looked up, at the .
sound ef the child’s voiee. He had .
really furgotten what was going on .
around him.
“Ah!” he satd, “the children ; what .
dees the boy want ?”
Madame Adelaide translated the wish
of Wolfgang.
“With pleasure,” answered the King,
giving hima theme from an opera of
Lully, at the time very popular.
Wolfgang bowed in a_ highly becom.
ing manner, and went back to the piano.
The King could not help looking after
the little fellow, and although he re.
sumed his card playing, yet he listened
to the boy’s performance. But suddenly he threw the cards upon the table,
and rose with the greatest surprise in
his countenance.
The court followed, and soon was
Woifgang Mozart surrounded by the
heads and chief dignitaries of one of the
most powerful empires of Europe.
The little virtuoso felt his heart-blood
stirred by the approach of all these people, and he roused himself to do his utmost—his very best.
The King drew several times his
hands over his face and forehead, in
order to aatisfy himself that he was not
dreaming. The Queen's eyes became
wet, and Madame Victoire, herself a
virtuoso on the piano, could scarcely
repress her astonishment and admiration.
All these people, a Pompadour, a Soubise included, felt moved as they had
never been before. Something unusal
occurred to them ;the invisible power of
the great and beautiful took hold of them
and elevated them high above the dust
of triviality. They felt themselves, at
least for a few minutes, different and
ter.
pe Welfgang had finished. A loud ‘bravo’
. New York Evening Post, assures us
of the King gave the signal to a general
and, at this Court. very uznsual applause
and M’me Victoire, the favorite daughter of Louis XV., hurried to the little
artist, covering him with kisses and
caresses,
Meauwhile, the King had approached
M’me de Pompadour, in order to express
to her his delight with the performance
just heard, and the Marchioness was
therefore induced to order the boy to be
brought to her, which was, of course,
immediately accomplished.
“A little fellow,” she said, with a curl
of her lip, “but a genius. Do place him
before me upon a table.”
This was done; and as she smiled
upon him most condescendingly, Wolfgang bowod over to her, in order, as
was his way, to kiss her. But how
flashed his eyes and burnt his cheek,
when the Marchioness proudly turned
back, and quite indignantly he exclaited:
Fortunately for him, these words
were spoken in German, so that only the
Princess Victoire, who stood near by,
could understand them ;.but she was
too much pleased with the boy and his
remark io repeat it.
Woifgang was, of course, also here
obliged to satisfy the curiosity ard vulgar taste of the high folks by that trick
of playing on the piano after the keys
had been covered with a napkin, a feature which had startied so much the
courtiers at Vienna.
After he hai repeated this farce several times, he said, with some disgust, to
M’me Victoire ; “They are all alike ;
only you alone here understand music:
and therefore give me something to do
which is better and worthierthan what
I dic just now.”
“But what ?” asked the Princess.
“Give him a minuet, and let him add
the bass to it,’’ advised Countess Tesse.
“Good !” replied Madame. “Monsieur Le Grand, will put on paper a minuet for the boy without the bass 2”
Monsieur Le Grand, the music teacher of the princesses, somewhat known
by his compositions, smiled, but acquiesced in the wish of his royal pupil.
This was hardly done, when the child
took the pen, and without even approaching the plano, put in the best
manner a base under the composition.
Monsieur Le Grand became, in consequence of this, quite amazed azd conused, for he knew too well that he himself was not able to do it.
However, the admiration and the surprise of the company was not atits climax
“Well,” said Madame Adelaide, who
sang very finely. “If you can do so much,
you will not shin accompanying
j. mein a cartiline, which 1 am going to
sing, and which L feel confident you do
not know.”
“fimpossible !” exclaimed Le Grand ;
“this is quite impossible !”
“I will try it,” said the boy, and sat
. down at the piano.
Madame Adelaide commenced singing, and the child tried the accompaniment, as wellas this canbe done with
a song which has never heen heard beBut as soon as the
cavatina was finished, he begged the
Princess to repeatit; and then he not
only played with the right hand air, but
also added with the left hand the bass,
without hesitating for onee, and did this
ten times, every time altering the character of the accompaniment. This was
the we plus nltra ever heard, and, too, of
a child of seven years !
What an evening for our hero ! How
they admired, adored and caressed the
