This multimedia presentation with Conductor Leif Bjaland tells the story of how the divinely gifted Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart came to write one of the most revolutionary works of his time. Towards the end of his short but brilliant life, Mozart was broke, ignored by his formerly adoring public, and mourning the death of his daughter. It is said that Mozart’s final symphony sums up an era, but more than that, it is a glimpse into the intimate life of this child-like genius. No. 41 in C Major, known as the Jupiter Symphony, holds the key that unlocks the miracle of Mozart.
