W.A.Mozart Ave verum corpus

Recently I have read that an unknown work of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart found in a library in Nantes. Actually it is not a complete work but only a page from unknown work and it is supposed this could be a sheet of some Mozart’s composition, probably a Mass. The reason of experts’ confidence is their identification of Mozart’s handwriting. Currently around 100 Mozart’s autographs are known. Well, I can only imagine how much this sheet cost could! I think it is priceless. The only regret is that only a little fragment of Mozart’s composition was found, but not complete Mass. Perhaps it would be even more outstanding than his Requiem. As did one of experts say this work also is supposed to be written shortly before his death.

Other well known Mozart’s choral work is Ave verum corpus. This work was written at the time when his wife Constanze was pregnant with their sixth child.
