{"product_id":"wa-mozart","title":"W.A. Mozart","description":"\u003cp\u003eHermann Aberts classic biography  first published in German more than eighty years ago and itself based on the definitive mid-nineteenth century study by Otto Jahn  remains the most informed and substantial biography of Mozart in any language. The book is both the fullest account of the composers life and a deeply skilled analysis of his music. Proceeding chronologically from 1756 to 1791  the book interrogates every aspect of Mozarts life  influences  and experience; his personality; his religious and secular dimensions; and the social context of the time. In a book within a book  Abert also provides close scrutiny of the music  including the operas  orchestral work  symphonies and piano concertos  church music and cantatas  and compositions for solo instruments. While the tone of Aberts great work is expertly rendered by Stewart Spencer  developments in Mozart scholarship since the last German edition are signaled by the Mozart scholar  Cliff Eisen  in careful annotations on every page. Supported by a host of leading Mozart scholars  this immense undertaking at last permits English-language readers access to the most important single source on the life of this great composer.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44962811150389,"sku":"ByrdShop_0300072236","price":109.04,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780300072235.jpg?v=1770397105","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/wa-mozart","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
