The two sons of Wolfgang Amadeus and Constanze Mozart: Carl Thomas (r) and Franz Xaver Wolfgang Mozart (l) (painting of Hans Hansen, Vienna, 1800)

Karl (Carl) Thomas Mozart (born 21 September 1784 in Vienna; died 31 October 1858 in Milan) was the second and oldest surviving son of Wolfgang and Constanze Mozart. Before finishing his schooling, some of which under Franz Xaver Niemetschek in Prague, he fled to Livorno in 1797 to begin his apprenticeship with a trading firm. He planned to open a piano store in the following years, but the project failed for lack of funds. So he moved to Milan in 1805 and studied music with Bonifazio Asioli, though he gave up the studies in 1810 to became an official in the service of the Viceroy of Napoli in Milan. Karl also frequently attended events related to his father until Karl's death in 1858. Image File history File linksMetadata Carl_and_Franz_Xaver_Mozart. ...
