'''''{{PAGENAME}}''''' was a [[2008]] [[Big Finish]] full-cast audio short story, featuring the [[sixth Doctor]] and Dr. [[Evelyn Smythe]].
It had a notably innovative structure for a [[pseudo-historical]] story. The story began with a difference between how the audience and [[the TARDIS]] crew viewed historical events.  It ended with the Doctor unwittingly changing history into a shape the audience recognises.  In other words, the Doctor and Evelyn accept an exceptionally long-lived Mozart as being the norm for their time stream, but they ''change'' history such that Mozart died a young man in [[1791]].

[[Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart]]. Born in [[1756]], a veritable wonderkind - playing music for the crowned heads of [[Europe]] as an infant, composing by the time he was five years old. But it's tempting to wonder whether his amazing longevity has overshadowed his creative genius - would Mozart's music be better respected, maybe, if he'd died as a young man? Would he be a legend of music, rather than of scientific curiosity, if he'd never lived to compose the film score for the remake of ''[[The Italian Job]]''?
