ISBN 9780143126065. English. [Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart] By Paul Johnson.

In this brilliant biography, acclaimed historian Paul Johnson draws upon his expert knowledge of the era and Mozart's own private letters to conjure Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's life and times in rich detail. Johnson charts Mozart's life from age three through to his later years. Along the way, Johnson challenges some of the popular myths that cloud Mozart's image: his allegedly tempestuous personal relationships and supposedly bitter rivalry with Salieri, as well as the notion that he was desperately impoverished when he died. The result---a bold, invigorating portrait of one of the most popular and influential composers of all time.

Musikbuch des Jahres bei der Kritikerumfrage der Zeitschrift ,,Opernwelt

Die Opern Giacomo Puccinis rangieren seit mehr als hundert Jahren auf Spitzenpositionen des weltweiten Repertoires: Tosca, Butterfly oder Turandot faszinieren noch heute, ebenso wie die Genialitat der kantablen Erfindung Puccinis.

Das Handbuch bietet Artikel zu allen Werken und Beitrage zur Biografie, zur Politik-, Kultur- und Operngeschichte Italiens und zum transnationalen Einfluss von Puccinis Werk. Neben der Rezeptionsgeschichte bis hin zu gegenwartigen Inszenierungen liegen die Schwerpunkte auf Fragen der Werkentstehung, der Librettisten, der Vers-, Form-, Melodie- und Klangbildungen sowie der Besonderheiten von Musikdramaturgie und Szene. Erstmalig bundelt das Handbuch die Erkenntnisse der internationalen Forschung, die manch vertraut geglaubte Werkfassung und Lebensepisode revidiert.

So zeigt etwa ein wieder entdeckter Kurzfilm aus dem Jahr 1913 Puccini in hauslicher Idylle - und deckt zugleich auf, dass diese Idylle nur eine gespielte war: Der Selbstmord eines Dienstmadchens hatte ihn in die schwerste private Krise seines Ehelebens gesturzt. Wie Biographie, Werkbiographie und Musikdramaturgie zusammenhangen, erschliesst dieses Buch.

Richard Erkens war freier Musikjournalist und Leitender Musikdramaturg sowie Stellvertretender Operndirektor am Theater Lubeck. Zurzeit ist er Wissenschaftlicher Mitarbeiter an der Musikgeschichtlichen Abteilung des Deutschen Historischen Instituts in Rom.
