Mozart: Rise of a Genius

An annoucement for people, like me, who love Mozart: there is a documentary series on BBC 2, aptly titles Mozart: Rise of a Genius. It's in three parts and, while you might not learn anything new about his life, you will most definitely find some interesting analysis that will give you new perspectives on his work. Various people talk, musicians, actors, all Mozart lovers, among them South African soprano Golda Schultz. And Schultz just gets Mozart. These commentators are both instructive and moving. I don't know if it is accessible outside the UK, but do check it out if you can.
