Leopold Mozart to his daughter in Salzburg

Vienna, 16 February 1785

On Friday evening we drove to his first subscription concert, at wich a great many members of the aristocracy were present. ... The concert was magnificent and the orchestra played splendidly. In addiction to the symphonies a female singer of the Italian theatre sang two arias. Then we had a new and very fine concerto [K. 466] by Wolfgang, wich the copyist was still copying when we arrived, and the rondo os which your brother did not even have time to play through, as he had to supervise the copying. ... On Saturday evening Herr Joseph Haydn and the two Barons Tinti came to see us... Haydn said to me: "Before God and as an honest man I tell you that your son is the greatest composer known to me either in person or by name. He has taste and, what is more, the most profound knowledge of composition."
