later, he married Anna Maria in Salzburg.

Leopold became the orchestra's

deputy Kapellmeister in 1763. During the year of his son's birth, Leopold
published a violin textbook, Versuch einer gründlichen Violinschule, which
achieved success.[6]

When Nannerl was 7, she began keyboard lessons with her father, while her
three-year-old brother looked on. Years later, after her brother's death, she
reminisced:

He often spent much time at the clavier, picking out thirds, which
he was ever striking, and his pleasure showed that it sounded
good. ... In the fourth year of his age his father, for a game as it were,
began to teach him a few minuets and pieces at the clavier.  ... He
could play it faultlessly and with the greatest delicacy, and keeping
exactly in time. ... At the age of five, he was already composing little Mozart's birthplace at
pieces, which he played to his father who wrote them down.[7] Getreidegasse 9, Salzburg

These early pieces, K. 1–5, were recorded in the Nannerl Notenbuch. There is
some scholarly debate about whether Mozart was four or five years old when he
created his first musical compositions, though there is little doubt that Mozart
composed his first three pieces of music within a few weeks of each other: K. 1a,
1b, and 1c.[9]

In his early years, Wolfgang's father was his only teacher. Along with music, he
taught his children languages and academic subjects.[10] Solomon notes that,
while Leopold was a devoted teacher to his children, there is evidence that
Mozart was keen to progress beyond what he was taught.[10] His first ink-
spattered composition and his precocious efforts with the violin were of his
initiative and came as a surprise to Leopold,[11] who eventually gave up
composing when his son's musical talents became evident.[12]

1762–73: Travel Mozart family on tour:

Leopold, Wolfgang,
While Wolfgang was young, his family made several European journeys in which Nannerl; watercolour by
he and Nannerl performed as child prodigies. These began with an exhibition in Carmontelle, c. 1763[8]
1762 at the court of Prince-elector Maximilian III of Bavaria in Munich, and at
the Imperial Courts in Vienna and Prague. A long concert tour followed,
spanning three and a half years, taking the family to the courts of Munich, Mannheim, Paris, London,[13]
Dover, The Hague, Amsterdam, Utrecht, Mechelen and again to Paris, and back home via Zurich,
Donaueschingen, and Munich.[14] During this trip, Wolfgang met many musicians and acquainted himself
with the works of other composers. A particularly significant influence was Johann Christian Bach, whom he
visited in London in 1764 and 1765. When he was eight years old, Mozart wrote his first symphony, most of
which was probably transcribed by his father.[15]
