I think your refering to the comment made; "Too many notes"-Emperor Joseph II's reaction to Mozart's Der Entführung aus dem Serail ("The Abduction from the Seraglio") in 1782 is…true! Or at least, widely believed to be so. The complete quote was, "Too many notes, my dear Mozart, and too beautiful for our ears." The Emperor was echoing a sentiment felt by many regarding Mozart's music: that it was so complex and sublime that it sometimes overwhelmed the senses of his eighteenth-century audience.
