Well, the way I see it is that the year of Mozart birthday celebrations
will be the height of Mozart's Career.  Already the more simple music
of his isn't in the repertoire and what remains are his concerti,
symphonies in minor keys and operas.  As time passes, the more complex
music of the past becomes more important until we gain and understanding
of it and move past it.
