莫扎特的首次演奏高考英语作文

it was a very happy household . there was leopold, a fine musician and music master in austria. there was his adoring wife. there was marianne, a schoolgirl. and there was little wolfgang, a child not quite four years old.

marianne was learning to play the piano, and day after day the handsome leopold stood behind her as she practised. how very patient and loving her father was, and how cleverly he showed marianne how to play some particularly difficult piece! she was making very good progress, and that was ecellent.

and there, almost lost in the big chair, sat wolfgang, little wolfgang, who never had to be told to keep quiet, when marianne was practising.

one evening at sundown leopold patted mariannes shoulder saying she had done remarkably well. at that moment wolfgang climbed on his fathers knee and begged to be allowed to play the pretty piece marianne had now mastered .

what a joke that was! picking up his baby son, leopold laughed, tapped the tiny nose, and said, “look at your small hands. why, you cannot span the notes yet. you must wait, little man. you must wait!”

there was no end of fun during tea, and marianne had to tell her mother about wolfgang wanting to play one of the classics .when the meal was finished, marianne helped clear away the dishes while leopold lit his pipe .

but the pipe went out. leopold was on his feet. “listen!”said he in awed tones.“listen! marianne is playing that piece better than ever!”

but marianne was washing pots in the kitchen.

his wife following, leopold creptupstairs, the lamp in one hand, his pipe in the other. he pushed open the door, and there was little wolfgang playing in the darkness. “i love it so!”whispered the child.

it was the beginning of mozarts life of music.
