New Mozart works discovered.

The International Mozarteum Foundation said Thursday it has discovered two more works of music composed by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.  It’s rare and highly uncommon that after all of these years that a piece of work let alone two are discovered after all of these years, but it’s happened.

Take from Yahoo music, it does it’s best to give details onto when these works will be shown and preformed publicly for all to hear:

The Web site of the organization said its department of research had identified the works, long in the foundation’s possession, as Mozart compositions.

Mozart, who was born in Salzburg, lived from 1756 to 1791. He played piano from an early age, began composing music when he was 5, and eventually created more than 600 works, ranging from operas to chamber music, choral pieces and piano concertos.

The foundation declined to provide more details Thursday, saying specifics would be made public during a presentation in Salzburg on Aug. 2.

During the event, Austrian musician Florian Birsak will perform the pieces on an original Mozart piano.

It’s going to certainly be a sight and sound to hear compositions that haven’t been played in hundreds of sum odd years.  However, it’s another huge step in history and musical progression, to view and listen to these works in their original format

Michael Jackson King of Pop Dead at 50.

Aside from Michael’s personal life, I think it’s fair to say, he was as respected and loved in the music community as much as anyone could have possibly been.  Also, at this point in time, alot of mystery still surrounds his death, with the DEA now getting involved in the investigation.

Michael, had a knack for working the crowd, and producing highly entertaining shows to match his eccentric attitude.  Either way, the music community has lost one of the best preformers/singers of the 80’s.  I personally was born to late to remember anything but the tragedy/eccentric life style he decided to live.  Either way, RIP Michael Jackson, King Of Pop.
