\n\tMore than 230 years after his death, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart is dropping new music. While the vaunted classical composer died in 1791 at age 35, according to Agence France-Presse<\/a><\/em> a previously unknown piece of music experts believe was written by a teenage Mozart was recently discovered at a library in Germany.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe 12-minute piece referred to as \u201cGanz kleine Nachtmusik\u201d dates to the mid- to late-1760s and is described as consisting of seven miniature movement for a string trio according to a statement from the Leipzig Municipal Libraries. Researchers reportedly discovered the piece at Leipzig\u2019s music library when they were compiling the latest edition of the so-called \u201cK\u00f6chel\u201d catalogue, an exhaustive, chronological list of all of Mozart\u2019s known compositions.<\/p>\n

\n\tWhile the unearthed manuscript was not personally written by Mozart, researchers said it is believed to be a copy of the original made in 1780. The piece was performed for the first time by a string trio at the unveiling of the latest edition of the catalogue in Salzburg on Thursday (Sept. 19) and will get is German premiere at the Leipzig Opera on Saturday (Sept. 21).<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cSince the inspiration for this apparently came from Mozart\u2019s sister, it is tempting to imagine that she kept the work as a memento of her brother,\u201d said Ulrich Leisinger of the International Mozarteum Foundation in Salzburg in a statement about the piece, which is unique because until now researchers thought of Mozart as mainly a composer of piano music, arias and symphonies.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe K\u00f6chel catalogue described the piece as \u201cpreserved in a single source, in which the attribution of the author suggests that the work was written before Mozart\u2019s first trip to Italy\u201d in December 1769 when the child prodigy composer was just 13-years-old.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
