Researchers Surmise Strep Throat Killed Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart

The death of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart has perplexed scholars for years as debate over what felled the famed composer ranging from poisoning to eating bad pork but now researchers appear convinced it was actually “strep throat” that ended the 35-year-old’s life.

According to a team of researchers at the University of Amsterdam, Mozart suffered a fatal swelling of the kidneys which was brought on by a bacterial infection. Mozart died in Vienna in 1791 and no autopsy was ever performed.

In researching Mozart’s death the scholars found that the symptoms the composer suffered from were consistent with what would have been brought on by untreated “strep throat.”
