From the author to MUSIClassical...
The story of the novel:
The lives of the four Weber sisters are changed by the arrival of
twenty-one-year-old Wolfgang Mozart, a young man struggling to find
his place in the eighteenth-century musical world. The sisters will
inspire him with their singing; he will write great music for them
(including the Queen of the Night) and fall in love with at least two
of them. But the one he eventually marries is not the one he first
loves.
Kirkus Reviews gave the book a star for outstanding quality and
said, "With its frequent changes in locale and abrupt switches in
the objects of affection, the tale is reminiscent of nothing so much
as an opera—appropriately enough. A delight, at once fanciful and
erudite: richly satisfying to Mozart buffs and fascinating to those
in the outer circle as well."
This is my fourth published novel. I am an American Book award winner
and a lyric coloratura soprano. The novel will be translated into
German and Italian as well.
