In this era of rococo painting, surrealist aesthetics, and political turbulence, Mozart reckoned with a searing talent that threatened to overwhelm him, all the while pushing himself to extraordinary feats of musicianship. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eMozart in Motion\u003c\/i\u003e, we are returned to the volatility of the eighteenth century and hear Mozart's music in all its audacious vividness, gaining fresh perspectives on why his works still move us so intensely today as we continue to search for a modernity he imagined into being.\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Farrar, Straus and Giroux","offers":[{"title":"Mozart in Motion: His Work and His World in Pieces | Patrick MacKie | Hardcover | 9780374606206 | Used: Good | Back Stacks E 1743550","offer_id":48199116128408,"sku":"1743550","price":8.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/81ZfaZhmQ5L.jpg?v=1772546509","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/mozart-in-motion-his-work-and-his-world-in-pieces","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
