About
When Leopold Mozart died in 1787 at the age of sixty-seven, Lorenz Hagenauer's son, Dominikus Hagenauer, wrote in his diary that his father's late friend had been "a man of wit and sagacity, who would have been capable of rendering good service to the state even apart from music "but that he "had the misfortune of being always persecuted here and was by far less beloved here than in other, greater places in Europe."
