Mozart liked living luxuriously. He was able to do so, earning handsome fees as a self-employed composer. However, Mozart is known to have had debts and his begging letters are also famous. During this guided tour through the Mozarthaus Vienna, we want to take a closer look and get to the bottom of the truth.
He was his teacher, educator, advisor, manager and, above all, his loving father – November 14 marks the 306th anniversary of Leopold Mozart's birth: the close relationship between father and son, which was often viewed very differently, is the subject of this special tour, provided by Dr Ruth Müller.
What caused Mozart's death? Was he poisoned? Was he murdered by Antonio Salieri or perhaps by a Freemason? And who was the mysterious commissioner of the Requiem? These questions, myths and legends have been circulating for 234 years – on the anniversary of the death of the immortal musical genius, they will be subjected to a fact check in a special tour provided by Dr Ruth Müller.
