Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (27 January 1756 – 5 December 1791) was a prolific and influential composer of the Classical period. Despite his short life, his rapid pace of composition resulted in more than 800 works representing virtually every Western classical genre of his time. Many of these compositions are acknowledged as pinnacles of the symphonic, concertante, chamber, operatic, and choral repertoire. Mozart is widely regarded as one of the greatest composers in the history of Western music.

Angela Hewitt (born 26 July 1958 in Ottawa, Ontario) is a Canadian classical pianist. She studied at the Royal Conservatory of Music in Toronto from 1964 to 1973, then went on to be the student of French pianist Jean-Paul Sevilla at the University of Ottawa. Hewitt has performed around the world in recital and as soloist with orchestra. She is best known for her cycle of Bach recordings. Her discography also includes works by Couperin, Rameau, Messiaen, Chabrier, Ravel, Schumann, Beethoven, Chopin, Debussy and Fauré.
