and forth about what they heard and who they heard it from. Those two in my opinion really set the play in motion and gave just enough insight on Salieri to have you on your toes. In my mind I’m asking the same questions, “did Salieri really poison Mozart and if so why to tell it now?” I’m really into it now just from the first couple minutes.

Marrying Mozart is a novel written by Stephanie Cowell. The book is based on the life and times of the Weber sisters of Mannheim Germany. It focuses mainly on the interactions between the Weber’s and Mozart. The novel is sectioned into six parts rather than chapters, and throughout the novel has small sections in which Sophie Weber, the youngest of the four sisters, chimes in from what appears to be the ‘present tense’ of the novel, in 1842 Salzburg, Austria.

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart was born in Salzburg in Austria, the son of Leopold, Kapellmeister to the Prince-Archbishop of Salzburg. By the age of three he could play the piano, and he was composing by the time he was five; minuets from this period show remarkable understanding of form.
