For the first 16 years of her life, Mozart’s sister shared equal billing with her brother. Musical partners and collaborators, Wolfgang Mozart and Maria-Anna Mozart played together before Kings and Queens, and were the talk of Europe. What happened to her? Forced to withdraw from public life because she was a woman, a stunning new investigation explores why she was retired and what happened to her music.
Fresh from sold-out sessions at its Sydney Film Festival World Premiere this fascinating documentary is a 250 year old ‘musical mystery’ story that explores the lost talent of “the other Mozart”, Wolfgang’s beloved sister and fellow child prodigy, Maria-Anna Mozart.
The film features an interview with CDU’s Prof. Martin Jarvis AO, whose research work in the application of Forensic Document Examination techniques to handwritten music-manuscripts was instrumental uncovering the real story behind the music.
