Would Mozart like this or not?

Unlike most people who have answered... yes... Mozart would of liked it....

Besides the 250 year gap between us and Mozart, you are speaking of a composer who incorporated many styles of music and was quite fond of exploring new ideas...

Examples:

He incorporated Italian Opera, Mannheim Orchestral Techniques, Haydn's Musical Jokes, J.S. Bach Counterpoint, use of plain chant that Monteverdi used, chromaticism and Strum und Drang of CPE Bach, String textures of Vivaldi and folk melodies of France in his music.

He experimented to much with his music...

i.e. the surprise piano entry in the orchestral exposition in the Eb Piano Concerto K. 271, the use of a cadenza in the Bb Piano Sonata, first composer to compose a concerto for 3 pianos, using the viola and violin as solo instruments in the Sinfonia Concertante, using 13 wind instruments in the Woodwind Divertimento... to name a few...

Mozart was all about breaking the barrier in music. He always seeked the newest ideas and if he didn't innovate them he would promote the ideas of others. Just because of the genre difference with your video and his style... I know that he would of embraced the idea. If Mozart were alive today, I bet you he would be one of the fore runners of contemporary music and experimenting in ways none of us could think off...

I think he would enjoy the concept of it and after he grasped that he would go home and write something else for all the instruments plus turntable. Its a new medium of expression. And not only that, he'd check out the pick-up on his violin and be like, I wonder what else I can do with that. He might have been an amazing music engineer come to think of it.

Given that this entire video would not fit into Mozart's frame of reference (he would recognize the violin, but not the style of music, notes, and rhythms the violinist is playing), I'm sure he would be puzzled by what's going on.

He may like it- or he may hate it, I'm not sure about that. But he would definitely find it curious (and would likely want to get his hand on the turntable to see how inka one does the rubbing at about 1:32 in the video.)

I think he would like the IDEA of the song more so than the actual music. He would find it hard to enjoy just for the simple fact that it wouldn't fit into the way people from his time were used to thinking about music. Aside that one tiny fact I think that he would really enjoy that someone was "rewriting" an older piece to sound new again. I also think that he would appreciate these musicians new way of looking at music.

The violin was good but then the turntable chimed in......awful.

I doubt that Mozart would have liked it. There is no need for those silly hip-hop beats in the background. The violin sounded fine on its own.

Wolgang Amadeus Mozart - 1756 to 1791. He was a very prolific composer. He composed in just about every genre at the time: opera, symphony, choral. His father Leopold was also a composer, famous for the Toy Symphony. Try borrowing a few Mozart CDs from your local library to get an idea of his music.

I think he would have liked to "jam" with them and he would have gotten a kick out of how his music is still appreciated today.

isn't that mozart in the back?

I have no idea what Mozart would like - he's dead and I'm not psychic.
