I just finished Jane Glover's wonderful MOZART'S WOMEN and recommend it wholeheartedly. Her chapters on Mozart's sister, wife and sisters-in-law after his death and the publication of his music are quite fascinating, and it's a very different, much more positive, picture of the composer and his relationships than that of AMADEUS. It's got me interested in hearing a lot of his music I don't know; last weekend I listened to LA CLEMENZA DI TITO, the opera seria he wrote while he was composing THE MAGIC FLUTE. I didn't know the opera and it provided several glorious hours of music last Saturday. I may listen to it again this weekend and follow it with my orchestra score.
DRs Ginny and Jane, your book groups should read this book and do a little listening along with the reading.
