Even though Mozart is better recognized in cultures, literature, and history, what he had experienced and shared with Salieri cannot be neglected since their relationship plays a vital role in Mozart’s life. Though Mozart is the character that allows this play to be written, Peter Shaffer focuses on Salieri, the composer of the palace and puts him on the very center of the play. On contrary to many works that were written about Mozart, Peter Shaffer tries to give light to the relationship of two prominent musicians in the history by concentrating on Salieri. In this paper, the play of Peter Shaffer, Amadeus, will be analyzed under the light of the narcissistic approach. Psychological terms and definitions will also be mentioned in the article considering that both of the musicians had psychological problems. Along with this, some information and reminders will be given about classical music, economy and social conditions of the 18th century
