In conclusion,
This is the beginning
This essay will describe the plot and two scenes of Amadeus, as well as my thoughts on the play. Amadeus was a play about Antonio Salieri and Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. Salieri, a composer, was also jealous of Mozart’s natural talent to be a composer. Salieri devised a horrible plan to murder Mozart out of jealousy. Salieri will accuse God of giving Mozart this chance and not him.
The Play’s Characters
Antonio Salieri. Joseph II, Ruler Austria. A court musician and later imperial Kapellmeister, Salieri has a lot of energy and has promised to sacrifice his life and skills in exchange for his fame as composer. Salieri was able to achieve success at the court of the Emperor and is now part of an Italian advisory group for the Emperor on cultural issues. Salieri is shocked to hear Mozart’s amazing work and feels betrayed. He allows himself to be consumed with his feelings of mediocrity and jealousy. As a way to get back to God, he promises to destroy Mozart. Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. Mozart, a Salzburg composer and musician, is seeking to be admitted to the court. He is very notable for his music, which he produces in spite of being extravagant, arrogant and juvenile. He is eventually sentenced to death and becomes an addict. He doesn’t stop singing his song. Constanze (Stanzi), Weber. Weber married Constanze (Stanzi), Mozart’s wife. He did so against his father’s wishes. Weber loves Mozart through all his humiliation, hardships, and supports him in his work. While she is young and noble, she is also more responsible and productive than her husband and willing to make sacrifices for him. The First Scene I’d like to describe is Mozart’s death. Salieri can be seen in this scene changing his locks. Teresa, his partner and Katherina Cavalier are available to sing with the pianist. Katherina is also influenced by Salieri’s lust. The two women wore puffy, white gowns with wigs and wore old dresses. The background included a piano and curtains as well as a table and stools, as well a glass or wine or water and food. Salieri was shocked and stunned by Mozart’s and Constanze’s admissions and actions.
The following scene
The background is very similar to the part 1 and 2 of Part 2. The piano, curtains, as well as the table, were identical. Part 1 featured the same characters and the same clothing as Part 2. Part 2 contains a scene that Mozart finds out that he can’t perform the opera because he rewrites the work. Mozart immediately addresses Salieri and says: ‘I am prohibited, but that is what you know. Salieri is the only person present at the moment. Although his expression was alarming, he was happy with the news. Salieri claims he would like to talk to Emperor Mozart about the Mozart rehearsal. Salieri never discussed the Mozart rehearsal with the Emperor.
To sum up,
The play was enjoyable overall. Salieri must have been jealous of Mozart, and bitter because he knows he will never be as good as Mozart. This play would not have been as entertaining to me if I didn’t like it. The part of the play that Mozart chased ConstanzeWeber, who eventually became his wife, was very funny. She acted like a mouse. I was not a fan of the way Count Rosenberg, Salieri conspired to sabotage Mozart’s Figaro Opera. I enjoy Mozart music. It is soothing and relaxing. Overall, it was a pleasure to watch the play.
