Thanks to Connie Woloschuk, a Canadian friend and colleague who sent me these links, a couple of CBC (Canada) radio programs on Mozart she enjoyed over the holiday season.
Part 1:
http://www.cbc.ca/player/Radio/ID/2426383766/
From boyhood triumphs to burial in a common grave; a Mozart “grand tour” with historians, archivists, musicians, musicologists, even a Freudian analyst, recorded in Paris, London, Prague, Vienna and Salzburg. PLUS excerpts from Mozart’s letters.
Part 2:
http://www.cbc.ca/player/Radio/Living+Out+Loud/ID/2428141154/
Which of Mozart’s arias were composed in return for sexual favours? Do we see in Don Giovanni a coded quest to kill his father? Why did Mozart gamble so recklessly? Was the mysterious “grey messenger” who commissioned the Requiem the harbinger of his death?
