Event description

Who really was Mozart? Who were his friends, colleagues, mentors? What was their life really like?

Enjoy chamber music by Mozart's own cellist friend and composer Wanhal, virtuoso violinist and composer Carl Stamitz, Mozart's alleged rival Salieri, and Mozart's own, effervescent Oboe Quartet, written for his close friend, the acclaimed oboist Freidrich Ramm.

Hear Mozart in context with his contemporaries, through his own words - (and some from his hairdresser...)

“Of the two Stamitz brothers, only the younger one is here... they indeed are two wretched scribblers, gamblers, swillers and adulterers – not the kind of people for me..."

"...Neither a lofty degree of intelligence nor imagination nor both together go to the making of genius. Love, love, love, that is the soul of genius...” WA Mozart
