A fascinating historical mystery that will keep the reader turning pages. Mozart's music was beautifully written, if not difficult to be played and sung. To be heard is phenomenal. Young and old can appareciate Mozart's music; it has a way of transcending one's spirit richly. Having heard parts of a 'requime,' I could almost hear it again as I read sections of the book from Rees' writing.
Rees' writing stirs the reader's emotions as he/she questions the mystery of Mozart's death. The characters in the book are portrayed historically well. Many people and reasonings are questioned as suspect of Mozart's death. An excellent read for a lover of music or the mystery reader, especially the historical mystery reader...
