Mozart vs Clementi: The Famous Battle of Christmas Eve 1781!

Mozart was invited by the emperor to show up on Christmas Eve 1781. There he met one of the most admired virtuoso players of his time: Muzio Clementi. Today, so much later than 1781, we can overlook lives in a glance. But often, it pays off to go into detail. Some reflections on that evening in this little vlog. Take it as a personal note, based on some historical facts and supplemented with much fantasy...
