In this definitive biography, Wolfgang Hildesheimer demythologizes Mozart, revealing him as a flawed and puzzling human being, but a matchless artist. Hildesheimer's fresh approach to the music itself, his telling quotations from Mozart's letters (Mozart was one of the greatest and most outrageous of letter writers), and his sympathetic but unsentimental insights make this a remarkably readable portrait of one of the most popular composers of all time. Book jacket.Hildesheimer, Wolfgang is the author of 'Mozart - Wolfgang Hildesheimer' with ISBN 9780374214838 and ISBN 0374214832.
