About me:
Born in Salzburg, Austria on Jan. 27, 1756; full name Johannes Chrysostomus Wolfgangus Gottlieb Mozart; I was baptized as Johannes Chrysostomus Wolfgangus Theophilus Mozart. I am named after my grandfather on my mother's side and after the Saint on my date of birth, Johannes Chrysostomus.
-Parents: Leopold Mozart - composer and violinist, concertmaster at the archiepiscopal court, and in -1763, vice-kapellmeister at Salzburg court; and Anna Maria Pertl, daughter of Wolfgang Nikolaus Pertl, an official from Sankt Gilgen
Sibling: Maria Anna (Nannerl) Mozart

-1763-1766- I toured Europe with my father and sister and played for Louis XV at Versailles and George III in London
-1764- I wrote my first three symphonies; also met Johann Christian Bach
By my teenage years, I mastered the piano, violin, and harpsichord
-1768- I completed my first opera, La finta semplice (The Simple Pretense)
