The Morgan Library and Museum presents "Treasures From the Mozarteum Foundation of Salzburg," running through May 31. This exhibition reveals how specific objects shaped Mozart's extraordinary musical journey, offering insight into the composer's formative years and the environment that nurtured his genius.

Among the highlights is Mozart's childhood violin given by his father when he was just 6 or 7. The exhibition also features the only surviving fragment of music written by his sister Nannerl, Mozart's first biographer who was overshadowed by her brother's fame. Together, these pieces tell a story of sibling rivalry and collaborative musical talent.

The 'Rondo alla Turca' manuscript represents Mozart's ability to incorporate global influences into his compositions. This piece demonstrates how Mozart's extensive travels shaped his musical language, showing how material culture continues to influence our understanding of artistic development centuries later.
