What sights and sounds greeted Mozart when he stepped outside his door? How much were the rents, and what was the cost of living? What did musicians generally earn, and how did Mozart's income compare?... 'Astonishingly free of the usual scholarly prejudices... an interesting, truthful, and at times touching book about the last ten years of Mozart's life.' - H. C. Robbins."
