Description

During his multifarious travels, Mozart did not forget Belgium. Did you know this? Actually Belgium did not yet exist as such, we were then in 1763. It was in effect at Brussels that the little Mozart, who was then only seven, performed at the invitation of the Governor-general Charles de Lorraine. Owing to his young age, Mozart was not yet the musician of genius as we will know him later. It is said however that, already during that concert, he appeared as an infant prodigy of the music.
