Virtual ECS 3: Mozart and Saint-Georges

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart is one of the most famous composers of all time, and for good reason. He dominated the musical landscape of the 18th Century and his musical innovations influenced generations of composers who followed him. Meanwhile, Mozart's contemporary, Joseph Bologne, Chevalier de Saint-Georges, has only recently returned to center stage as musicians have recognized his remarkable achievements and musical contributions.
