There's another nice Mozart connection to unplayable music in the story of the bet between Mozart and Haydn, where the former bet the latter he could write a piece of music Haydn't couldn't play. It required striking a single note in the middle of the keyboard when the hands were very far apart.
Haydn tried it and failed. Mozart struck the key with his nose.
