19th Century Views
Konrad describes the views that were prevalent during the 19th century period of Mozart scholarship. In particular, "the 'making of music' was ... mythologized as a creative act". The 19th century regarded Mozart's compositional process as a form "of impulsive and improvisatorial composition ... an almost vegetative act of creation." Konrad states that the 19th century also mythologized Mozart's abilities in the area of musical memory.

“Experiences in order to be educative must lead out into an expanding world of subject matter, a subject matter of facts or information and of ideas. This condition is satisfied only as the educator views teaching and learning as a continuous process of reconstruction of experience.”
