Mozart was fascinated, amused, aroused, hurt, and betrayed by
women. He loved and respected them, composed for them, performed
with them. This unique biography looks at his interaction with
each, starting with his family (his mother, Maria Anna and beloved
and talented sister, Nannerl), and his marriage (which brought his
'other family', the Weber sisters). His relationships with his
artists are examined, in particular those of his operas, through
whose characters Mozart gave voice to the emotions of women who
were, like his entire female acquaintance, restrained by the
conventions and structures of eighteenth-century society. This is
their story as well as his -- and shows once again that a great
part of the composer's genius was in his understanding and musical
expression of human nature. Evocative and beautifully written,
Mozart's Women illuminates the music, the man, and above all the
women who inspired him. 'Jane Glover has pulled off a coup des
livres with her fresh take on Mozart's life and work' Sunday
Telegraph 'Readable, informative and moving...Her passion for the
music shines through this touching, vividly told story' Sunday
