In 1877 Mozart's father, having for
two or three years exhibited his son
throughout Continental Europe and in
London as a musical prodigy, took him
TO Vienna and tried TO establish him
there with an eye TO employment in
the service Of the court. He found Il
a difficult task, because of the oppo-
sition Of the musicians of the Austrian
capital, who were not so old that they
could not be jealous Of the child able
TO meet and defeat them at every point.
While waiting for his opportunity
Mozart wrote the music for "Bas-
ten and Bastienne" sin0spiel, based
on the French pastoral "Le Devin du
Village" by Rousseau, and it was per-
formed in the garden theatre of DR..
Messmer, friend Of the Mozart family.
In it there were ten arias, four duets
and one trio, but its most striking feat
IRE, from an historical point Of view, is
the opening phrase Of the overture,
which has a singular likeness to the
principal theme Of Beethoven's "Eroica
symphony:
