Threesome – Marriages & Affairs of Convenience
During his time in Lviv, Mozart’s life had less to do with music and everything to do with romance. Franz Xaver’s entire life was proscribed by two needs, trying to emulate his father’s musical genius and staying as close as possible to the love of his life, Josephine. He met the latter after being hired by her husband, Ludwig Cajetan von Baroni-Cavalcabò, to give piano lessons to their daughters. Baroni-Cavalcabo, the Habsburg Government’s Chief Councillor in Lviv, was much older than his wife and their marriage was one of social convenience. Franz-Xaver and the beautiful Josephine fell deeply in love. They spent many hours alone rehearsing for musical performances that were to be hosted by the family. Their affection grew through the years and Franz-Xaver stayed as close to her as possible. He kept an apartment close to the present day location of the Les Kurbas Theater, at the time just west of the still uncovered Poltva River. The only extended periods he spent away from her were two attempts at making a fortune on concert tours. In this way he hoped to provide Josephine with a lifestyle and social standing that would allow the couple to marry. It was not to be. His musical ability lacked the genius of his father.

  • (Deutsch): Franz Xaver Wolfgang Mozart, "1808 ging er als Musiklehrer zu einer Adelsfamilie in der Nähe von Lemberg (Galizien). Nach dem Ende dieses und eines weiteren ähnlichen Dienstverhältnisses ließ er sich 1813 in Lemberg nieder und wirkte dort als Pädagoge und Komponist. Von Lemberg aus unternahm er 1818 bis 1821 eine ausgedehnte Konzertreise, die ihn quer durch Europa führte und an die sich ein Aufenthalt in Wien anschloss. 1822 kehrte er nach Lemberg zurück, an das er vor allem durch seine Liebe zu einer verheirateten Aristokratin, Josephine Baroni-Cavalcabò geb. Gräfin Castiglioni (1786–1860), gebunden war. Er war Mitbegründer des Lemberger Musikvereins und organisierte in der Stadt zahlreiche Konzerte, so auch eine Aufführung des Requiems seines Vaters aus Anlass von dessen 35. Todestag am 5. Dezember 1826 in der Lemberger St. Georgs-Kathedrale, die er selbst leitete. Als angesehener Pianist und Pädagoge wirkte er bis 1838 in Lemberg. Eine seiner Schülerinnen war die Komponistin Julie Baroni-Cavalcabò, verh. Weber von Webenau, später verh. de Britto (1813–1887)."
