Mozart Writes His Own Requiem is a book written by Sigmund Spaeth that tells the story of the final days of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, one of the most celebrated composers in history. The book describes how Mozart, despite being in poor health and facing financial difficulties, was determined to write his own requiem mass, a piece of music traditionally composed for the dead. Spaeth chronicles the events leading up to Mozart's death, including his interactions with his family, friends, and colleagues, and how he worked tirelessly to complete the requiem before his passing. The book also explores the mystery surrounding the commissioning of the requiem and the rumors that it was actually commissioned by a stranger who wished to pass it off as his own work. Overall, Mozart Writes His Own Requiem is a fascinating and poignant account of the life and work of one of the greatest musical geniuses of all time.THIS 18 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Stories Behind the World's Great Music, by Sigmund Spaeth.
