Mozart and his circle

From his earliest years as an internationally acclaimed wunderkind to the triumphs and frustrations of his artistic maturity, Mozart had a wide circle of friends, family, and patrons. This book consists of several hundred biographical entries on Mozart's circle, which included not only sovereigns, princes, and members of the nobility but also theater directors, librettists, actors, singers, instrumentalists, composers, physicians, publishers, pupils, as well as family members.
