A portrait of Mozart, painted posthumously by Barbara Krafft in 1819

Status: Partially Lost

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (Jan 27, 1756-Dec 5, 1791) was one of the most well-known and praised composers of all times, known for writing over 600 pieces, with some of his most notable being his 14th Piano Sonata, Eine klein nachtmusik, and his divertimento "A Musical Joke".

The Missing Works

Due to composing so many works and these works being composed hundreds of years ago, many works would be expected to have become lost over the years. Unbelievably, however, most of the lost works of Mozart are simply incomplete. The only four truly lost works go as follows:

• Variations in A (K Anh.206, K⁶ 21a)

• Symphony in D (K Anh.215, K⁶ 66c)

• Symphony in B-flat (K Anh.217, K⁶ 66d)

• Symphony in B-flat (K Anh.218, K⁶ 66e)
