A treasure has been found in France's national library: a notebook containing unpublished compositions signed by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart from the time when he was giving music lessons. The pieces will be performed for the first time in public by two musicians from the Radio France France philharmonic orchestra as part of France's Fête de la Musique, a day dedicated to music which takes place every year on June 21.
