Mozart and Constanze"Historian Francis Carr examines Mozart's life from the time he met and married Constanze, a marriage to which Mozart's father was positively hostile. Carr looks in detail at the circumstances of Mozart's early death and hasty funeral and concludes foul play. Mozart was poisoned, he argues, and rushed to an unmarked grave to avoid autopsy and the subsequent sandal that would expose the murder that resulted from Mozart's adulterous affair with one of his favorite pupils."--Back cover |
