Dominated and shaped by a highly intelligent but frustrated and ambitious father, his story sees the development of a unique genius, from precocious and often endearing childhood to liberated fulfillment, unexpected poverty, and a tragically early death. Generously illustrated by Mozart's music, from his fifth to his final year, this portrait-in-sound reveals a fascinating yet elusive character, drawing richly on the words of the composer himself and those who knew him. This is the ideal way to understand more about Mozart the man, and his music. Throughout his life, he wrote numerous letters to his father and his friends and pupils and his musical colleagues wrote about him. On this entertaining recording, with parts read by various actors, Mozart himself comes to life with his sublime music ever-present as his career unfolds. 610 $aMozart, wolfgang amadeus, 1756-1791 610 $aMusic 610 $aBiography & autobiography 610 $aBiography 702 $aSiepmann$b Jeremy$4oth 702 $aBoulton$b Nicholas$4oth 906 $aAUDIO 912 $a9910150290103321 996 $aWolfgang Amadeus Mozart$9832533 997 $aUNINA
