St. Chrysostom and Mozart


Mozart and Chrysostom

Although Mozart is known as “Wolfgang Amadeus”, he was actually baptized as “Joannes Chrysostomus Wolfgangus Theophilus Mozart.” The first two of these names were chosen for the feast day on which he was born, that of St John Chrysostom, which was universally kept in the West on January 27th until the calendar reform of 1969. The Armenian Church celebrates the Feast of Saint John today.
