I read a biography of Mozart this week. Very detailed biography, really narrows it down to where Mozart was and what he was doing on specific dates. The author did his research very well. My only complaint is that it was too detailed. The book did have substance to make me think about Mozart as a person, but I wish it delved more into a substantive thought process of who Mozart was, and how he shaped music today, just felt dry. Felt like it was more fact finding and reporting. However, to say the least I did learn a great deal about Mozart, his mannerisms, and his upbringing all the way until his mysterious death. It's interesting how nobody knows where he was buried.
I chose Mozart because I ABSOLUTELY love his musical compositions. I practically started playing the Piano because of him.
Anyway I would rate the book a 6.7/10. I'm sure there are better books out there in terms of substance, maybe even shorter. However, in terms of fact finding and following his life step by step, this author does a phenomenal job.
