The 1200 or so letters of Mozart and his family form the most
fascinating correspondence by any artist of the eighteenth century
or earlier, and Mozart himself ranks high among letter writers of
any age or occupation. A vivd and amzingly detailed picture emerges
of Mozart's career as performer, teacher and composer, as well as a
lively account of contemporary musical politics in the courts and
opera houses of Europe. The inclusion of letters from his father, a
dominant but loving parent determined to supervise his son's career
evern after he had grown up, highlights the problems which Mozart
encountered in breaking with his provincial background, as well as
providing a glimpse of the social and domestic details that tell us
so much about the kind of person Mozart was and how he lived. The
correspondence ends with the pathetic begging letters of his last
years and the touching, adoring yet protective letters to his wife.
This edition is being published in May 2006 to coincide with the
250th anniversay of Mozart's birth. The selection has been made
from the classic translation by Emily Anderson.
