Mozart; Man, Myth and Music (Parts 1 and 2)
Presented by CBC Radio-Canada
Apologies as this went through the cracks over the recent holiday rush of year 2013. Still, for Mozarteans and Mozart enthusiasts, anything about the master is welcome. This Holiday Special on Mozart was kindly provided by Connie Woloschuk, a writer-friend, who apparently enjoyed the program. We are pleased to share the links.
Mozart: Man, Myth and Music (Part 1)
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.
Mozart: Man, Myth and Music (Part 2)
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?
