Mozart’s life alongside music to play

Opal Wheeler’s biography pairs an account of Mozart’s life and times with a substantial musical supplement: the enlarged edition includes thirty-five pages of Mozart’s compositions at the end. The publisher identifies waltzes, minuets, and sonatas among the pieces, giving the book a dual focus on the composer and on music-making. It belongs to the Great Musicians Series, which presents composers’ lives and the people, places, and events associated with their work. The combination makes the musical selections part of the book’s structure, not just an accompanying reference.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers interested in biographies of classical composers
  • Music learners who want printed Mozart pieces alongside biographical material
  • Students exploring music appreciation through composers’ lives and works
