"Previously unheard composition to be available online"

"On 12 January 2006, Mozart's Verzeichnüss aller meiner Werke
(Catalogue of all my Works) will be available to internet users for
the first time. This latest addition to the British Library's Turning
the Pages™ is a digitised version of the original manuscript. It
contains 30 pages and 75 musical introductions to some of Mozart's
most famous compositions as well as the tantalising opening bars of a
number of lost works, including a 'Little March in D', recorded here
for the first time. Its pages can be `virtually' turned and viewed on-
line on the British Library's website www.bl.uk/turningthepages and in
the Treasures Gallery of the British Library."
