Description

Release Date: 28 August 2006

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart was without doubt the most prodigiously gifted of all Western composers. More than any other composer, it is his mythological biography - from the archetypal 'Wunderkind' childhood to is early obscure death - that defines our popular conception of a great composer. This film unravels two hundred years of fiction and myth. The deteriorating relationship Mozart had with his father, and his choice of Constanze for his wife are re-assessed in this film which expertly depicts the intrigue and jealousy that surrounded his life. Interviewees include Charles Rosen, Imogen Cooper and Jonathan Miller with extracts from La nozze di figaro, Giovanni, Die Zauberflote, Cosi fan tutte, Die Entfuhrung aus dem Serail and Piano Concerto No 2.
