Marketing and all things related

Now you might think that the Batman’s sidekick Robin is the official boy wonder, and you would be wrong, naturally. The title actually belongs to Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, who dazzled Vienna with his precocious musical talent. And this year is Mozart’s 250th anniversary celebration. Deutsche Grammophon is releasing a number of new recordings in his honor featuring primarily vocal work from arias and duets to opera. We mention this because sales of classical music are modest in relationship to pop, and without the continued support of classical music fans, new recordings are uneconomic to bring to market. So if you need music to sooth your soul, celebrate by purchasing a new release from the original boy wonder. We learned about this anniversary from Reuters, but the music speaks for itself.
