On this day, December 5, 1791, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart died in Vienna at the age of 35. He spent his final hours feverishly working on his "Requiem" mass, convinced he had been poisoned and was writing the music for his own funeral. While rumors blamed his rival Salieri, he likely died of kidney failure or strep infection. He was buried in an unmarked common grave, not because he was a pauper, but due to local laws. The exact location of his body is lost forever. | The Deep Dive
