Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756–1791) was among the most prolific letter-writers of any major composer, and his correspondence reveals a personality as vivid and complex as his music: witty, irreverent, anxious about money, and passionately dedicated to his art. Volume 1 of his collected letters covers his early years, his travels across Europe as a child prodigy, and his relationship with his father Leopold.
These letters are an essential biographical source for understanding Mozart the man rather than the myth. Download this free EPUB and hear the voice of a genius speaking across the centuries.
