Sons of Vienna

From the late eighteenth century through the early twentieth century Vienna was never without a world famous composer living and working within her friendly confines. Who were these master composers? We know their music well, but what of their lives, myths and legends? The Viennese took pleasure and found stimulus in music, art and architecture and it was in this colorful environment that Haydn and Mozart, among others, wrote the timeless compositions that have become the foundation of classical music. Past masters, eight in all, will be vibrantly brought to life not with black tie and tails but with vibrant tales of a different sort.
