Answer 5

Marie Antoinette was a great opera fan.  She brought with her from Vienna a love for music that was meant to appeal to the heart, in stark contrast to French music, whose emphasis on harmony appealed more to the listener's head.  

Marie Antoinette was a major champion and patron of the composer Glück, whose operas had audiences in both Paris and Versailles in tears.

She favored composers like Gluck, Piccini, and Salieri while the old French preferred Couperin, who was considered by her to be out-dated at the time.

Gluck was also Marie Antoinette's music teacher.

Music played a major part in Marie Antoinette's early life in her mother's court:

Wagenseil was the court music master, but the works of Haydn and Gluck were preferred over his. When word came to them about a certain Mozart, a child prodigy from Salzburg, who was coming through Vienna in 1762, Maria Theresa invited him to the Hofburg. Surrounded by their progeny, Maria Theresa and Francis listened to the little Mozart and his sister for three hours.
