Mozart Comes of Age

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

In 1777, when Mozart was 21, he left home with his mother on a 16-month tour which was to prove traumatic: on the way to Paris he fell in love; once in France, the audiences who had adored him as a child prodigy treated him with indifference, and his mother died. Gerald Larner retraces this significant journey with the help of the Mozart family's correspondence. Readers:
