  This is a compilation of 2 different titles, which are about the following topics: 
  1: Many people have had the pleasure to listen to Mozart’s music. His legacy has lived on for more than two centuries. And although he only lived to be 35 years old, he has had a major impact on the classical music genre. From simple rebel to sheer genius, this intelligent composer has shown the world that despite all the odds, masterpieces and pure art can become a reality. 
    
  Learn about Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, the composer and musician who wrote the “The Four Seasons” and traveled to Vienna, Amsterdam, Brussels, and all over Germany to lead violinists and others to create heavenly tunes. 
  2: Most people have heard of Ludwig von Beethoven, one of the most famous composers of all time. His music had a certain aggression, passion, and beauty to it that still brings admirers to tears, more than 200 years later. His symphonies came from his creativity, the circumstances, and the trends in that time period in Germany and Austria. 
    
  There is much to say about the historical context, the deep experiences, and the studies that Beethoven encountered during his life. All of these contributed to the mastermind of his time, who could come up with masterpieces and complicated musical art, despite his hearing problem (or because of it). 
    
  Explore the world of 19th-century Beethoven, the musical genius that remains a mystery to so many people, but no longer to you after you read or listen to this book.
