It's all about the music, dude! Sit down, relax and listen to some tunes.

" 'Flute' is a monument of Western culture, an inexhaustible treasure. Sorry it came across to you as less than that."

HI,
Much, much less. Sorry, I don't get it and I don't think there is enough there to try. But we have at least drawn the battlefield for discussion.

Mozart usually strikes me as being a superficial person with enormous native talent. I'll not argue that point. But, until the end, there was no depth with a few, almost accidental, exceptions. But towards the end of his superficial, pampered life -- glory, glory, glory.

He died too young. He was just coming into an understanding of life with its trials, joys, and triumphs. Many others, without the same talent, accomplished far more of real value. He is, generally, greatly overrated, IMO.
