Mozart's unshakeable hold on the public's fascination can only be strengthened by this bold, new perspective. It reveals truths more fascinating than the myths that have long shrouded the maestro's life. Here is the archetypal child prodigy whose genius triumphed over early precociousness and who eventually broke away from a loving but tyrannical father to pursue his vision unhampered.

This book traces the legendary developments of the man whose life was a whirlwind of achievement, and the composer who pushed every instrument to its limit and every genre - especially opera - into new realms. More than an engrossing biography, this is a meditation on the nature of genius.
