I googled Mozart and found the following: quote:
Mozart's religious beliefs
The degree of Mozart's personal commitment to Catholic doctrine is difficult to determine. Ruth Halliwell, a contributor to The Cambridge Mozart Encyclopedia, writes, "An educated guess at the totality of Mozart's beliefs based on reconciling the motley evidence would probably posit a broad belief in Christianity, but impatience with many of the requirements of the Catholic church.” [17] Another contributor, Bruce MacIntyre, suggests that Mozart "seems to have been a freethinking Catholic with a private relationship to God."
Is that enough to consider Mozart a bornagain type Christian as a "a freethinking Catholic with a private relationship to God"?

I only listen to Christian music, and I have a question. I recently bought ten tapes by Amadeus Mozart of his piano concertos composed around 1784.
Does anyone here know if Mozart was a Christian and what kind of Christian he was in 1784?
I would like to play these piano concertos, but only if he wrote them to the glory of God and not some lady in a salon in Paris.
Thanks, Eden
