Five Star Gift Ideas

For your son who loves Mozart, you can consider these gift ideas:

1. Classical Music Books: Consider getting him some books that offer insights into Mozart's compositions, lifestyle, and legacy. For instance, "Mozart: A Life" by Maynard Solomon, "The Cambridge Companion to Mozart" by Simon Keefe, or "Mozart: The Complete Guide to His Music" by John Burrows and Charles Rosen.

2. Classical Music CDs: Buy him recordings featuring Mozart's best pieces, either as a boxed set or a collection of his works performed by various artists. You can even get him some of Mozart's "greatest hits" that he can listen to in his car or on his personal music player.

3. Musical Instruments / Musical Accessories: If your son plays an instrument, consider buying him a new accessory for it, such as a new mouthpiece or reeds. Alternatively, you can get him a Mozart-era instrument, like a replica of a Mozart-era keyboard (such as a harpsichord or fortepiano) or a string instrument like a violin or cello.

4. Tickets to a Mozart concert: Find out if there are any upcoming performances of Mozart's work at a local concert hall or symphony and buy him tickets. If you are not sure which event to attend, you can ask him to pick the one he likes the most.

5. Mozart Souvenirs: Look into getting him posters, mugs, T-shirts, or any other souvenirs that celebrate Mozart's music. Some online retailers have exclusive Mozart merchandise that can add some flair to his collection.

I hope these suggestions help you find the perfect gift for your Mozart-loving son.

Or you can get him a star map with an important date you share.

Madeline Moran Weiler says about Under Lucky Stars star maps:

“The map was absolutely beautiful! My grandson was thrilled with it (it was a Christmas gift) and has already asked me if I would consider getting another one for him as a graduation gift in a couple of years.”
