lpv:spoken text	"Mr President, there have been reports recently in the British press about a conference held in Salzburg hosted by the Austrian Presidency. The purpose apparently was to discuss how Europe might re-engage with its citizens. This event happened to coincide more or less with the 250th anniversary of the birth of the immortal and glorious Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. Mozart was presented at this conference as some kind of proto-European federalist, because of nothing more than the fact that in his short career he travelled extensively in Europe. However, what were Mozart’s political views, if any? On hearing the news of Britain’s relief of Gibraltar and the victory over the French navy at Trincomalee, he wrote to his father, Leopold: ‘Indeed, I have heard about England’s victories and I am greatly delighted too, for you know that I am out-and-out Englishman’. Did the Austrian Presidency know that it was celebrating the birth of a self-proclaimed Englishman?"@en1
