Dir: Phil Grabsky
Narrator: Juliet Stevenson, Sam West (Mozart’s voice)
This critically-acclaimed documentary traces Mozart’s life through his music and extensive correspondence. Over 80 works are featured in chronological order, revealing striking parallels between the music and Mozart’s own experiences. Throughout, it is the music that takes centre stage, with the jigsaw of Mozart’s life fitting around it. His letters reveal an extraordinary personal voice, which rings out on an engaging, human level, full of joy, passion, pain, rage, jokes, bawdy humour and sensitivity. (” Conveys the intensity of the musical experience more grippingly than anything I have seen on film or television.” The Times)
