Dinner & A Book - Mozart's Last Aria

Join me and my guests Gabrielle Robinson and Mike Keen as we discuss the life of Mozart’s sister in Mozart’s Last Aria by Matt Rees.  We’ll prepare some Viennese dishes. And we will try to answer such questions as:  Was Mozart poisoned? And why wasn’t his famous sister  recognized for her musical talents …on Dinner and a Book. 

While the author Matt Rees and his wife were touring in Austria, they passed through a small mountain village where Mozart’s sister, Nannerly, had spent her married life.  While visiting her house, the author felt called by her –called by a talented woman who had been consigned to this backwater while her famous brother achieved fame in Vienna.  This is the story of Mozart’s mysterious death through the eyes of his sister, Mannerly.
