RE: Improvisation = fast Composition ?

mozart used to write two parts at the same time.
he wrote quite automatically and despite his short life was the most
prolific composer (though he did write a lot of fluff)
he was also an agile improviser.  like bach, he could improvise 4 part 
fugues.
i can't imagine doing that.  they are pretty difficult to compose on paper.
