Welcome to your own piano corner - and some interesting stuff about Mozart

Hi Uma.  I hope you are having fun learning the piano.  The piano is the luckiest instrument alive because most of the greatest composers (people who create music) have written music specifically for the piano. And there is a lot of music you can learn.  Why, it would take two lives just to play all the published music.


so let's start by learning all about Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.  He was born in Austria in the 1700's and....well, why don't you listen to a special recording about him?
