A long-lost musical score by supposed rivals Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and Italian composer Antonio Salieri has been revealed by the Czech National Museum. The libretto (the text of an opera) was found tucked away in the reserve collection for more than 200 years. Ulrich Leisinger, Research Director of the International Mozarteum Foundation in Salzburg talked to BBC’s Nuala McGovern about this discovery.
