Opus 1s: The First Works of Great Composers, Part 1

Every great composer has an origin story. Every composer started
somewhere. I’m fascinated with a composers first works because
they tell us so much about who they are going to become. We can
see in so many of these works a germ, a seed of an idea that will
blossom into masterpieces. In some cases, composers were writing
masterpieces before they turned 18. And some were late bloomers,
giving some hope to the rest of us! Today we look at composers
1-5: Mozart, Rameau, Haydn, Mendelssohn, and Korngold.
