This charming grouping presents three different issues honoring the Austrian composer, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, along with one featuring Ludwig von Beethoven. The first three offer chocolate brown surfaces, with very little in the way of wear upon the high points, while the last is yellow-brown surfaces, with some scattered spotting.

One of the most famous and prodigious composers in history, Mozart (1756-1791), was born Johannes Chrysostomus Wolfgangus Theophilus Mozart in the Archbishopric of Salzburg in Austria. At an extremely young age, he showed immense talent with both the keyboard and the violin, and was performing in front of royalty from the age of five. During his rather short life, he composed hundreds of works which have continued to generate a massive influence even to this day.

Born in the Electorate of Cologne, Ludwig van Beethoven (1770-1827) displayed an immense musical aptitude from a young age, and studied under Joseph Haydn upon moving to Vienna. A crucial figure between the Classical and Romantic periods, he had a colossal output of material before being robbed of his hearing ability later in life.
