I love classical music!

Prague - Czech Republic

Did you know that also Mozart had been in Prague four times?
On his first trip, in early 1787, he visited Count Thun and his wife,
whom he knew from Vienna.
They lived in what is now the British Embassy in Malá Strana.
Mozart stayed at an inn on Celetná Street.
During this trip he conducted his Prague Symphony and a day later,
on January 20, a performance of his opera The Marriage of Figaro,
which had a more successful run in Prague than in Vienna.
