‘When everyone you meet has some beautiful memory of your father,
you start believing that you knew him, too.’
– Franz Mozart (Mozart’s son), Imaginary Letters, Mozart Remembered.
Imaginary Letters: Mozart Remembered explores the influence of Mozart’s life on his music, interweaving reminiscences of Mozart from letters written by his wife Constanzi, son Franz, cousin Anna and associates, including Salieri & Schikaneder. An original play adapted for the stage by Peter Coy from the book by Michael White, it was originally commissioned for the Wintergreen Summer Music Festival, where it received its world premiere in July, 2010. Juilliard Professor Michael White has drawn upon a lifetime of research, teaching, listening, and — most of all — admiring and loving Mozart and his music to paint this poignant & entertaining portrait of the great composer.
