Not What I Expected

If you are a serious musician, well-versed in all of the intricacies of Mozart's compositions, this book might really strike a chord (ha!) with you. I expected a little more biography, which is there, but sketchily, in my view. There was quite a bit of supposition about why he wrote what he wrote and what he was feeling due to the goings-on around him, but of course we don't know the reality of any of that. The writer is a poet and it did, at times, feel a bit like a poetry book with a lot more flowery talk than the straight scoop. Not my jam. (Sorry, I couldn't help it.)
