Mozart’s women5 September 2005
Reassessing his relationships with family and lovers

'Mozart’s Women' is conductor Jane Glover’s contribution to the wealth of biographies written about the life of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.

However, as well as concentrating on the man himself, this book looks at the close relationships he had with his mother, sister, lovers and wife, Constanze. It also puts the record straight about Constanze, much maligned by history, and reveals a close and happy marriage. 

Jenni talks to Jane Glover and Sunday Times critic Hugh Canning about the composer, and the women in his life.
