August 1994, Salzburg, Austria

The Getreidegasse is the main shopping street in the old part of Salzburg. The building at 9 Getreidegasse was the birthplace of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756-1791), and where he composed much of his early music. Mozart is a hard figure to avoid when visiting Austria. For example, in Vienna, you can see lots of people dressed as Mozart selling concert tickets.
