The Austrian musician Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756-1791) began playing the piano at the age of three, learned to read music at four, and started composing at five. Even at a young age, he was already famous in the capital and shook the entire continent. This once-in-a-century genius was "filled with music," hailed as the "God of Music," yet he faced countless hardships and died young, earning the endless admiration and sighs of posterity. Among the many works about Mozart, this book stands out. It not only captures the incredible magic and unimaginable talent of the master but also reveals his ordinary, innocent, and vulnerable personality with its flaws. It also dedicates significant space to recreating his growth, struggles, and the influence of his family, society, and era on him. This is the coming-of-age story of a musical prodigy, as well as a history of 18th-century European customs. Bestselling author Brigitte Haman, with a historical perspective, artistic vision, and literary touch, guides us closer to Mozart, his world, and his time through vivid, authentic words and carefully collected rare images.
