{"product_id":"mozart-in-paris","title":"Mozart in Paris","description":"\u003cp\u003eA crucial episode from the life of the great composer-rendered in graphic novel form Color illustrations throughoutIn 1778, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756-1791) leaves Salzburg for Paris. The French capital promises to liberate the 22-yearold from the suffocating grip of his father and from a city that is unable to accommodate his genius. But there is no grand entrance for the former child prodigy. When Mozart arrives in Paris, he is cash-strapped, unknown, and his French is limited. His mentor, the critic Baron von Grimm, introduces him to a number of Parisian nobles. With these contacts, recognition is still hard-won; the French court appears indifferent to Mozarts talents and disapproving of his spontaneity at times.Tracing the composers six-month stay in the city of lights, Mozart in Paris dramatizes the confrontation between a bright-eyed genius and everyday reality. Frantz Duchazeau spotlights a frustrating yet formative period of the composers life-and in doing so creates a living, breathing portrait of one of historys most gifted musicians.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Selfmadehero","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45888313950406,"sku":"DADAX1910593729","price":27.75,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0695\/9389\/1014\/files\/91d3-diO_KL.jpg?v=1779957002","url":"https:\/\/ergodemedia.com\/products\/mozart-in-paris","provider":"Ergodemedia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
