Therefore I must admit that I was born in a city that, as far as Mozart was concerned, "blew it". Nevertheless, Munich at least holds a geographically strategic position, being situated 60 km southeast of Augsburg, Leopold Mozart's native city, and 120 km northwest of Salzburg, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's birth place.

I can assure everyone that this "luggage" does not weigh in very heavily at customs on entering Canada. I have lived in Edmonton for over ten years and consider myself, when it comes to classical music in general and to Mozart in particular, a very interested lay person.

The mere status of a "very interested lay person" does not necessarily predestine one to provide a remotely adequate answer to that question.
In such a case it helps, however, to check one's "luggage" again for additional treasures

1. Introduction to the city

The highlights will of course be the birthplace and residence of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and the Festival Halls, where the world-famous Salzburg Festival founded by Max Reinhardt together with a group of intellectuals and artists is held every summer. If you have read my previous post about the Hohensalzburg Fortress and DomQuartier (including the cathedral, Residenz, St. Peter’s Abbey and their relevant museums and galleries), please click here to skip the general introduction of Salzburg and jump directly to the main content of this one. If not, the following two chapters will, 1) talk about Salzburg as the shooting location for the external scenes of the American musical drama film “The Sound of Music“, 2) explain how the city meets 3 out of the 10 Selection Criteria to be inscribed in the UNESCO World Heritage list, 3) provide you with some practical information such as the Salzburg Card, which gives you free access to all the attractions in the city and public transport and 4) introduce to you the general structure of my fours posts about Salzburg. Now let’s
