AN INTRODUCTION TO MOZART

TRY THIS!

Mozart’s full name is usually written “Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart,” but that’s not what Mozart called himself. His father baptized him Johannes Chrysotomus Wolfgangus Theophilus Mozart. He enjoyed decorating and twisting his various names into words like Wolfie, Wolfgango, Gangflow (that’s Wolfgang spelled backwards), Mozartini, Mozartus, and Mozarty. Remember, this guy loved to play around! But he virtually never used the name “Amadeus.” So where did “Amadeus” come from? The answer is easy if you know ancient Greek and Latin (as Mozart did): Amadeus is Latin for the Greek word Theophilus, which means “lover of God.”      However, Mozart used variants of the Latin word, turning it into Amadeo, Amadè, or most often, Amadé.

​El nombre completo de Mozart suele escribirse "Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart", pero
eso no es lo que Mozart se llama a sí mismo. Su padre lo bautizó Johannes
Chrysotomus Wolfgangus Theophilus Mozart. Le gustaba decorar y
torciendo sus varios nombres en palabras como Wolfie, Wolfgango, Gangflow
(eso es Wolfgang escrito al revés), Mozartini, Mozartus y Mozarty.
Recuerda, ¡a este chico le encantaba jugar! Pero virtualmente nunca usó el
nombre "Amadeus". Entonces, ¿de dónde vino “Amadeus”? La respuesta es
fácil si sabes griego antiguo y latín (como hizo Mozart): Amadeus es
Latín para la palabra griega Theophilus, que significa "amante de Dios".
Sin embargo, Mozart usó variantes de la palabra latina, convirtiéndola en Amadeo,
Amadè, o más a menudo, Amadé.
