There is a macabre fascination in the spectacle of one so brilliant, dying so young, in such tragic circumstances. Was Mozart poisoned? Was he irresponsible and childish, dying from debauchery and dissipation? Did his wife contribute to his downfall? Was he driven to destruction by being ostracised as a rebel? Did his genius render him incapable of normal human contact and worldly prudence? Did he die because he had accomplished his mission as an artist and burnt himself out? Was he the victim of a run of bad luck? From 1791 to the present such stories have flourished; this book examines their development and the evidence for them.

It is 1791 and Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart is enlightenment Vienna's brightest star. Master of the city's music halls and devoted member of the Austrian Freemason's guild, he stands at the heart of an electric mix of art and music, philosophy and science, politics and intrigue. Six weeks ago, the great composer told his wife he had been poisoned. Yesterday, he died. The city is buzzing with rumours of infidelity, bankruptcy and murder. But Wolfgang's sister Nannerl, returned from the provinces to investigate, will not believe base gossip. Who but a madman would poison such a genius? Yet as she looks closely at what her brother left behind - a handwritten score, a scrap of paper from his journal - Nannerl finds traces of something sinister: the threads of a masonic conspiracy that reach from the gilded ballrooms of Viennese society to the faceless offices of the Prussian secret service. Only when watching Wolfgang's bewitching opera, The Magic Flute, does Nannerl truly understand her beloved brother once again. For, encoded in his final arias, is a subtly crafted blueprint for a radical new tomorrow. Mozart hoped to change his future. Instead he sealed his fate.

From his celebrated early childhood, Mozart has been caught up in myths: the superhuman prodigy, the adult who was still a child, the neglect, the pauper's grave. None of these myths are true, at least not at face value. Wolfgang Amadè Mozart is not primarily a myth-busting book, but in the process of bringing to vivid life the man and composer absorbed in writing for his public rather than for posterity, the myths topple en route. Swafford portrays a man who had his sorrows like everybody else, but who was a high-spirited, high-living bon vivant fond of games of skill, well-read and thoughtful if also at times playing the clown: in the end fundamentally a happy and happily married man who had a wide circle of friends.

ASCAP-Deems Taylor Award winner A fresh look at the life of Mozart during his imperial years by one of the world's leading Mozart scholars. "I now stand at the gateway to my fortune," Mozart wrote in a letter of 1790. He had entered into the service of Emperor Joseph II of Austria two years earlier as Imperial-Royal Chamber Composer—a salaried appointment with a distinguished title and few obligations. His extraordinary subsequent output, beginning with the three final great symphonies from the summer of 1788, invites a reassessment of this entire period of his life. Readers will gain a new appreciation and understanding of the composer's works from that time without the usual emphasis on his imminent death. The author discusses the major biographical and musical implications of the royal appointment and explores Mozart's "imperial style" on the basis of his major compositions—keyboard,chamber, orchestral, operatic, and sacred—and focuses on the large, unfamiliar works he left incomplete. This new perspective points to an energetic, fresh beginning for the composer and a promising creative and financial future.

Few people can keep a secret safe. For a secret to have been kept for 231 years is incredible - especially when it is about the life of such a famous person as composer Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. If the contention of this story is valid, it will rock the world of classical music to the core. There has always been controversy over the death of Mozart, from just days after his death. History records that, on 5 December 1791, Mozart died at his home in Vienna, aged 35. And immediately, questions were asked about his death. And have continued to be asked since then. Did he die of Military Fever, as claimed, or was he poisoned? Did he actually die on that date? Why was his body tipped into a communal, unmarked grave, and covered in lime? Was his wife having an affair with his pupil, Süssmayr? Was Mozart having an affair with his pupil, Magdalena Hofdemel? Was Magdalena pregnant to him? Why did Magdalena's husband, Franz, slash her with a razor, and cut his own throat, the day after Mozart's 'death'? Did the newspapers wrongly report Franz's death as happening five days after it actually happened, to distance it from Mozart's supposed death? Welsh Opera singer, Lynn John, was performing in Opera New Zealand's production of Verdi's 'Il Trovatore', conducted by Eliano Mattiozzi, an Italian living in New Zealand. After a rehearsal, Eliano asked Lynn, "What would you say if I told you Mozart didn't die on December 5, 1791? That he faked his death and lived on?" Lynn replied, "I can think of a number of reasons why Mozart may have faked his death," I said, "... his debts, The Freemasons, his affairs, his wife ... but if he'd lived on, he wouldn't have kept quiet. He would have composed music." Then came the shock response: "He did, but through someone else - Gioacchino Rossini." This statement was so incredible that Lynn John spent the next two years researching the evidence for Eliano's assertion. Tragically, before the final pieces of the puzzle could be established, Eliano died of a heart attack. The book "A secret never to be told", written by Lynn John, lays out a scenario based on that research. It is a great detective story. Not so much a 'Whodunnit', as a 'Did he do it?' And 'What happened?' The story is fascinating, but the conclusion rests with the reader. What do you think?
