You have to see it all in context. Both Bach and Mozart are great - they are great though in different ways. It would be foolish to imagine that Mozart didn't recognize the debt he owed to J.S.Bach, and we know from records of his friendship and respect for C.P.E.Bach whom he met as a young man.
I'm going to see Die Zuberflute soon at the Met. I think it is very whimsical and fun. The range Motzart gives his female divas is mind bending. They go from way up high and down again in an instant. I can''t wait to hear the Queen of the Night do her famous aria. Don Giovani and The magic flute are genius.
apples and oranges....apples and oranges.. if you understand music at its purest like this masters played, how can you compare and contrast, just enjoy your preference and leave it at that.
