Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756–1791) was an Austrian composer born in Salzburg, a central figure of the Classical era who left more than 600 works including symphonies, operas and concertos.

In 18th-century Europe, the 'musical dice game' (Musikalisches Würfelspiel) was a fad: roll dice to chain written bars into procedurally generated music. 'KV 516f', attributed to Mozart, can produce about 1.3×10^29 pieces.

Piano keys once had the opposite color layout. In the era of Mozart and Beethoven, wide keys were black and narrow keys white. This was likely because ivory for white keys cost more than ebony for black keys.
