Mozart was born in Salzburg on Jan 27 ,1756 .His full name is too long for us to remember .When he was a little boy he was called Wolferl .
Young Mozart always had new tunes ( 曲调 ) playing in his head .When he had no one to play with ,he would sit down at a table and write down all the tunes .
When his sister Nannerl was seven and Wolferl was three ,papa started teaching her to play the piano .Little Wolferl could not stay away !He loved hearing her play .He would sit on the floor ,playing with his toys while she practiced her music .
They could hardly keep him away from the piano .After her lessons ,he would come up to the piano ,stand on his toes ,reach up with his little fingers and gently ( 轻轻的) touch the keys .
Young Mozart could write exactly what he felt .When he was happy ,he would write a happy ,fast tune .When he was sad ,he would write a slower tune .The people of Salzburg always heard music as they passed by the Mozart home .They loved the new and beautiful tunes .Many people were so curious ( 好奇 ) that they would ask papa ,“ where did you find these beautiful tunes ” Papa ,who was so proud of his son ,would shout out ,“ My son wrote them himself !” People thought papa was just joking .But we know he was telling the truth .
