NPR has a delightful show celebrating Mozart. It's the 250th anniversary of his birth. And he apparently hated Salzburg. And the archbishop . . . I need to go get that movie . . . ummm . . . ah yes, Amadeus

Stanzi, his wife, was quite a business woman, apparently. She laid all the foundations for the "Mozart" industry . . . did you know his Salzburg apartment was turned into a Mozart museum 100 years after he died?

For more information -- and good musical clips.

He was best friends with Antonio Salieri. They would have long talks and drink lemonade and laugh the night away.

Salzburg is beautiful.

But Innsbruck is even prettier.
