Mozart's Attic Sunday August 21st at 6:00 p.m.

We’ve been following the progress of young Master Mozart — now going on twelve years old — as he embarks upon the rather busy year of 1768, in which he composes a three-act comic opera at the request of the Emperor: not bad at any age.

We’ll concern ourselves with his initial project of the year, another symphony, his seventh.

No longer is his music a mere curiosity produced by precocious child. Mozart is now producing works that stand on their own merit.

He began his association with WFIT in the late '90s as a dumpster diver for office furniture in response to a broadcast plea for a new chair from a frustrated disc jockey. (WFIT has come a long way since.)
