Kid Rock - Prodigal Sun Returns

By that time, the family lived in a house on Reingasse street (this historic house is no longer there, it was destroyed during an air raid in 1944). The street went straight down to the great Rhine, on the shore of which Ludwig loved to walk. But now it was necessary to work hard every day. As soon as the boy got used to the harpsichord, Johann forced him to study the violin as well. She was taught by a housemate and relative of Frau Lena, Franz Georg Rovantini, violinist of the court chapel. Mozart, by the way, also played the violin and the viola, and he played excellently. For a professional musician, this skill was then almost necessary. The musician, not knowing how to hold the bow, looked strange; the whole chapel would have laughed at this, and even in society, the possession of stringed instruments promised its benefits: many nobles loved to play in the ensemble,and it was even very possible to be at the next console with some baron, count or prince.
