The vibrant intellectual, social and political climate of mid
eighteenth-century Europe presented opportunities and challenges
for artists and musicians alike. This book focuses on Mozart the
man and musician as he responds to different aspects of that world.
It reveals his views on music, aesthetics and other matters; on
places in Austria and across Europe that shaped his life; on career
contexts and environments, including patronage, activities as an
impresario, publishing, theatrical culture and financial matters;
on engagement with performers and performance, focusing on Mozart's
experiences as a practicing musician; and on reception and legacy
from his own time through to the present day. Probing diverse
Mozartian contexts in a variety of ways, the contributors reflect
the vitality of existing scholarship and point towards areas primed
for further study. This volume is essential reading for students
and scholars of late eighteenth-century music and for Mozart
aficionados and music lovers in general.
