The forgotten story of Amadeus’ genius sister, who performed with her brother to equal acclaim.
Set in a stunning 18-foot dress, this multi award-winning production ushers you into a world of opulence and delight - obscured by restriction and prejudice. Inspired by the Mozart family’s funny and heartbreaking letters, Nannerl Mozart finally tells her story.
Nathan Davis and Phyllis Chen (Lincoln Center’s Mostly Mozart Festival) bring Nannerl’s musical imagination to life with award-winning original music for clavichords, music boxes, bells, teacups and fluttering fans.
Performed, in rotation, by Sylvia Milo and Daniela Galli.
