The first certified performance was on 2 October 1890 at the Architektenhaus, Wilhelmstraße 92 in Berlin Possibly premiered in Vienna, October 1768, in the garden of Dr. Originally composed in 1768, by the time Marco Coltellini had completed the libretto, the Mozarts were scheduled to leave Vienna, and so it received its premiere when they arrived back in Salzburg in 1769. Die Schuldigkeit des ersten Gebots is regarded as a "sacred drama", both L'oca del Cairo and Lo sposo deluso are unfinished, with only uncompleted fragments making up the latter, and Der Stein der Weise is collaborative work, written with Johann Baptist Henneberg, Franz Xaver Gerl, Benedikt Schack and Emanuel Schikaneder in 1790. The mentioned works are sometimes excluded from lists of Mozart's operas due to their debatable form. Mozart's operas, if you include Die Schuldigkeit des ersten Gebots, L'oca del Cairo, Lo sposo deluso and Der Stein der Weise, adds up to 22 works.

Eybler's autograph is the only score of the original version of the Requiem, ending at the ninth bar of the Lacrimosa. He wrote out the existing parts that Mozart had written out prior to his death, and didn't go beyond the end of the ninth bar of the Lacrimosa. It is thought that his great respect for the late Mozart was too great. Constanze originally asked Joseph Eybler, but he couldn't. It was left unfinished at his death on 5 December 1791, and after his burial on 6 December, Constanze asked Franz Xaver Süssmayr to complete the remainder of the work (from bar 9 of the Lacrimosa to the final Communio). The Requiem in D minor was Mozart's last composition, written between October and December of 1791.

Beginning in 1768 and ending in 1791, his sacred works are considered some of the most important and influential ever written. Mozart's sacred choral music consists of Masses, Litanies, Vespers, Psalms, Church Music, Oratorios, Cantatas, Requiem among and other shorter and fragmented works. Only relatively few of Mozart's compositions have opus numbers, as not so many of his compositions were published during his lifetime, so numbering by opus number proves quite impractical for Mozart compositions.On the other hand, for most chamber music and vocal music there is no such numbering (or at least no generally accepted one). Not all thematic groups of Mozart's works have a separate numbering that is generally accepted: Köchel only numbers symphonies (1 to 41), piano concertos (1 to 27, leaving out some early transcriptions by Mozart) and a few other groups. The compositions of Mozart listed below are grouped thematically, i.e.This catalog has been amended several times, leading to ambiguity over some KV numbers (see e.g. by composition date) catalogue of Mozart's works by Ludwig von Köchel. The indication "K." or "KV" refers to Köchel Verzeichnis ( Köchel catalogue), i.e.Mozart also wrote many violin sonatas, and other forms of chamber music, violin concertos, and other concertos for one or more solo instruments, masses, and other religious music, organ music, masonic music, and numerous dances, marches, divertimentos, serenades, and other forms of light entertainment. Perhaps his best-admired work is in opera, piano concerto, piano sonata, symphony, string quartet, and string quintet. Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756–1791) was a prolific composer and wrote in many genres. For a complete and chronologically ordered list, see Köchel catalogue.
