Dem kleinwüchsigen Muck bleibt nach dem Tod seines Vaters nur dessen Kleidung. Völlig mittellos macht er sich auf, sein Glück zu finden. Dabei gelangt er in den Besitz von zwei magischen Gegenständen, die ihn zum Kalifen führen. Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756-1791) wurde in Salzburg geboren. Das musikalische Wunderkind spielte bereits mit vier Jahren Klavier und Violine und absolvierte mit Vater und Schwester europaweite Konzertreisen.

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart war nicht nur ein begnadeter Musiker, sondern auch ein leidenschaftlicher Briefeschreiber. Schon früh begann er, mit Freunden und Familienmitgliedern zu korrespondieren. Die meisten Briefe, die den Schlüssel zu Mozarts Leben und Werk liefern, sandte er an seinen Vater Leopold. Während er bei anderen Adressaten oft in einen spielerisch-schelmischen Schreibstil verfiel, zeigte er sich seinem Vater gegenüber tiefgründiger. Wer das »Wunderkind« nur von seiner musikalischen Seite kennt, sollte die Briefe von Vater und Sohn, gelesen von Peter und Paul Matić, unbedingt auf sich wirken lassen.

„Als ich ihn eines Tages besuchte, sagte er mir: „Eben hab ich ein kleines Duett für meine Oper beendigt, das Sie hören sollten.“ Er setzte sich ans Klavier und sang es. Ich war hingerissen, und die musikalische Welt wird mein Entzücken begreifen, wenn ich erwähne, dass es das Duett des Grafen Almaviva mit Susanna war, „So lang hab ich geschmachtet“. Etwas Köstlicheres wurde nie zuvor von einem Menschen geschrieben; oft ist es eine Quelle des Vergnügens für mich gewesen, dass ich der erste war, der es gehört.

Dieses Hörporträt beleuchtet in 15 Kapiteln Mozarts Jugend voll anstrengender Konzertreisen, das schwierige Verhältnis zu seinem Vater, Liebeleien und große Lieben, Mozarts Probleme, seine Kreativität mit seinen oft unterbezahlten Anstellungen zu vereinbaren sowie seinen frühen Tod.
