Here are links to the six operatic masterworks of Mozart's maturity (keep in mind that Mozart began his<a style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);" href="http://www.mozartproject.org/compositions/ca_06.html"> operatic career</a> at the age of <a style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);" href="http://www.mozartproject.org/compositions/k__50__.html">twelve</a>.) The first link(s) provides access to the libretto.
