Fatal Dilemma: The Secrets of Constanze Mozart
H. S. Brockmeyer’s obsession with the composer, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, continues in the wake of her first book, Echoes of a Distant Crime: Resolving the Mozart Cold Case File. In this new book, a fictional work exploring the personality of Mozart’s wife, Constanze, the author investigates scenarios that she imagined may have happened in real life in the last three years of the composer’s life, 1789 – 1791, through the eyes of his wife, Constanze – and re-visualized through the eyes of a 21st century woman. Beginning in the last two days of Mozart’s life on 3 December, 1791, Brockmeyer pieces together scenes that correspond with real-life documents of activities surrounding Moza...
Constanze, Formerly Widow of Mozart
This book will do much to improve the reputation of Constanze Mozart, who has been vilified as having been an unworthy wife to one of the greatest musical geniuses of all time and has been blamed for his poverty and his less-than-glorious, premature death. Although a work of fiction and historical surmise, Constanze, Formerly Widow of Mozart stays close enough to the sparse biographical details of Constanze's life that the book has a tone of veracity and authenticity that is augmented by Malloy's footnotes and afterword.
Duologues for All Accents and Ages
This is a volume of scenes for two characters, hence duologues. The authors have selected meaty scenes from major plays, as well as from a few wonderful ones not well known. Here Jack and Algernon in The Importance of Being Earnest, Yvan and Marc in Art, Cecile and the Marquise de Merteuil in Les Liaisons Dangereuses, Mozart and Constanze in Amadeus, as well as two-character scenes from The Killing of Sister George, Kindertransport, The Crucible, and dozens of other works. Duologues provide a concentrated way of practicing skills and encourage actors to listen and respond. Helpful advice is given in the book by contributors such as Tom Stoppard, April De Angelis and Don Taylor.
Constanze, Mozart's Beloved
Constanze, the wife of Wolfgang Amadé Mozart, was not the foolish and self-interested individual of popular opinion, much of which is based on the views of Mozart's father, who believed that his son had chosen an inappropriate partner. This strong-minded woman was, however, to be of critical support to her beloved husband. From a family of accomplished musicians, she was possessed of a fine voice and sang in public performances of a number of Mozart's works, both before and after his death. She bore him six children, of whom two survived childhood. Her business acumen was such that after his death she was largely responsible for keeping his music before the public, organising concerts, securing the accurate publication of many of his works, including the Requiem, and acquiring patronage from the aristocracy. Her second marriage to the Dane, Georg Nikolaus Nissen, continued a life story which is a rich example of self-sufficiency and competence in an era when a woman in business was a rarity. Importantly, this book restores the reputation of a woman much maligned by history. Revised edition
Mozart and Constanze
"Historian Francis Carr examines Mozart's life from the time he met and married Constanze, a marriage to which Mozart's father was positively hostile. Carr looks in detail at the circumstances of Mozart's early death and hasty funeral and concludes foul play. Mozart was poisoned, he argues, and rushed to an unmarked grave to avoid autopsy and the subsequent sandal that would expose the murder that resulted from Mozart's adulterous affair with one of his favorite pupils."--Back cover

Mozart
Franz Xaver Niemetschek was born in 1766 in what is now the Czech Republic and came from a musical family, which gave him a deep appreciation and admiration for Mozart's genius. In 1798 he published his biography on Mozart, with a touching dedication to Haydn, the only one written by an eyewitness, and authorized by Mozart's widow Constanze. It is one of the earliest specimens of musical biography which, compared with other branches of biography, was still in its infancy even in the later part of the 19th century. In this sense, it is an important document of music history. However, this loving and intimate portrait of Mozart, based on documents, letters and other original sources, also conveys a vivid picture of the social and especially courtly life that formed the background of Mozart's sheer magical talents as composer and virtuoso.
