Episode Details

Have you ever met a real-life superhero? What if their superpower wasn't flying or lifting cars, but making incredible music? Meet Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart! By the time he was just three years old, he was already playing complex chords on the harpsichord. At age five, he was writing his own songs, and by eight, he composed an entire symphony for a full orchestra—all entirely in his head while sitting in total silence! Join Mira and Finn on History's Not Boring as they explore the true story of the greatest musical prodigy who ever lived. Discover how tiny six-year-old Mozart tackled the powerful Empress of Austria with a giant hug and kiss, survived a grueling three-year carriage tour across Europe, and grew up to compose over 600 beautiful pieces of music that changed the world forever. You'll also learn hilarious secrets about this genius—like his love for practical jokes, his silly letters, and his amazing pet starling bird who could sing his songs! Tune in to learn about the boy whose tiny fingers held more music than anyone in history!
