Alexandre e Fred recebem um dos "founding fathers" do PFC, Marcelo Rennó, para discutir um dos grande filmes de Milos Forman, "Amadeus" (Amadeus, 1984). O clássico baseado na peça de Peter Schaffer, relata boa parte da vida de Mozart (Tom Hulce) através do ponto de vista de seu colega Antonio Salieri, interpretado por F. Murray Abraham, que acabou por levar um dos 8 Oscars conquistados pelo longa, que entre outros, ganhou melhor filme e diretor naquela noite. ---------------------- Acesse nosso site: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠http://www.filmesclassicos.com.br⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Acesse nossa página no Facebook : ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.facebook.com/podcastfilmesclassicos/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

Nos transportamos a la Viena del siglo XVIII para revivir la fantasía histórica dibujada por Peter Schaffer y magistralmente filmada por Milos Forman. Conoceremos la vida, deliberadamente tergiversada, de uno de los mayores genios que ha dado la humanidad: Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. Amadeus es una obra maestra del cine, como así lo atestiguan sus 8 Premios Oscar donde además cosechó los más importantes de su correspondiente año. Pero más allá de reconocimientos y halagos, es un despliegue visual y musical que al menos se ha de disfrutar una vez en la vida y que sirva además de pretexto para adentrarse en la obra de este genio. En este programa tratamos de diferenciar la realidad de la ficción que se nos mostró en la gran pantalla, Guillermo además hará una serie de interesantísimos apuntes para entender mejor algunos de los momentos que se narran y tratar de poner contexto. Esperamos que la partitura sea de vuestro agrado.

Continuing our podcasts centering on biopics, we turn our attention to one of the best of the 1980s, Amadeus, directed by Milos Forman and adapted by Peter Schaffer from his play of the same name. It's a look at the life of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (Tom Hulce), through the lens of his rival, Antonio Salieri (F. Murray Abraham). We discuss Schaffer's play, which turned into the film, including all the well-known actors who starred in both the UK and Broadway. We look at the plot of the film, discuss some of the historical liberties taken in play and film, including the question of “did Salieri really kill Mozart?” We discuss the rest of the cast, including some well-known character actors and one young actress who would go on to star in one of the biggest US TV shows of this century. If that wasn't enough, we talk about Rock Me Amadeus, the 1985 song by Austrian singer Falco and marvel at not only how many versions of the song there were (over 20) but just how amazingly successful it was around the world. We might be having a new comics podcast coming soon. Still working on logistics. So be on the lookout for that, maybe, along with some big name guests coming to the main show (fingers crossed).

SynopsisOn today's date in 1979, a new play by Peter Schaffer titled Amadeus opened at the National Theatre in London.Schaffer's play tells the story of Mozart's final years in Vienna, including some posthumous gossip that it was the petty jealousy and back-stabbing intrigue of Mozart's Italian contemporary Antonio Salieri that hastened Wolfgang's untimely demise. There was even a Romantic legend that Salieri had actually poisoned Mozart, a legend Shaffer gave a psychological spin.Music historians were quick to attack Shaffer's play as wildly inaccurate and downright unfair to poor old Salieri, who, they said, was not all that bad a fellow. Accurate or not, Schaffer's play was a big hit, and five years later was made into a wildly successful film. That movie version of Amadeus prompted millions of new classical music fans to snap up any recordings of Mozart's Requiem they could find.And what about the music historians? They couldn't even find comfort in the old public relations adage, “There's no such thing as bad press as long as they spell your name right!” They felt even the movie's title was bogus. Mozart never signed his middle name “Amadeus,” preferring the French version, “Amadé.”Music Played in Today's ProgramWolfgang Mozart (1756 – 1791) Requiem; La Chapelle Royale and Orchestre des Champs Elysees; Philippe Herreweghe, cond.

A collector of sentimental jewelry across several periods, Beth is a jewelry consultant and author of “The Modern Guide to Antique Jewelry.” She joined the Jewelry Journey Podcast to talk about how antique jewelry periods are defined; what make a collector a collector; and how to keep antique jewelry in good condition without putting it away forever in a safe. Read the episode transcript here.   Sharon: Hello, everyone. Welcome to the Jewelry Journey Podcast. This is the second part of a two-part episode. If you haven't heard part one, please head to TheJewelryJourney.com to heart part one. Today, my guest is jewelry author, journalist, historian and consultant Beth Bernstein. She is the author of several books. Welcome back.    Tell us about “The Modern Guide to Antique Jewelry,” your most recent book. I was a little put off  because I'm not into antique, but it's very readable and interesting. Tell us about it.   Beth: That was the whole point. I had read so many antique books, because I was given piles of them to read way back when. I have a library full of books on antique jewelry and vintage jewelry. There's really no difference between antique and vintage, which I write about in the book, but antique jewelry is 100 or more years old. From 2022, if you go back 100 years, it would be 1922, but we went up to 1925 because we wanted to get in some of the Art Deco period.   Anyway, I wanted to write it differently than the books I had read, and I had an aha moment in doing that. I was doing tours through seven centuries of jewelry at the Miami and New York antique shows that were produced by U.S. Antique Shows. They knew I knew a lot about antique jewelry, so it was the company's idea that I do these tours. It started out with one tour each show, then it went to two tours each show. Before the pandemic, it was going to go to three tours each show because people kept signing up.    I took people through seven centuries of jewelry, from the Georgian era all the way through the 70s, from antique to vintage. I would take them to dealers that specialized in those time periods, and we'd talk about it. Then I'd have a Q&A for an hour, which always turned into a two-hour Q&A. Then we'd go to the next tour. People would ask me to take them back to some places and help them pick out jewelry, because I do have private clients. I love dealing with private clients who ask me to find antique things for them. Sometimes they're also at the shows.    So, the aha moment came when I was doing these tours. I thought, “Oh, my god! I know all these dealers are very trustworthy. They all have different points of view. They deal in different time periods. Why don't I do museum-quality jewelry, but what's on the market today? Not what you can find only in museums, but what's out there today that's sold? Why don't I interview some of these wonderful experts I've been taking people to?” And that made it different and more readable because it was more interactive, more conversational.    The beginning of the book is how to define your collecting style, and the last chapters are how to mix modern and antique. I did that chapter with Rebecca Selva from Fred Leighton, who's a mastermind of mixing modern, vintage and antique. So, that was really fun. Then there's how to shop an antique show, how to shop at auction. There's a lot of how-tos and advice given. I also brought the dealers and the stores in to give advice, and I didn't stick to just the biggest stores. Of course, I interviewed Wartski in London; I interviewed Fred Leighton and Macklowe Gallery in New York, but I also interviewed smaller dealers like Lothar Antiques, who is at Portobello. It's different companies and it's global. That was the fun of the book. So, it's part travelogue because I interviewed people across the United States, the U.K., Paris, Amsterdam and Belgium.   Sharon: Wow! Did you write the proposal and then go to the publisher? Did they come to you? How does that work?   Beth: I've always written the proposal and gone to the publisher. For this book, I went to my publisher for “If These Jewels Could Talk” because I thought they did a wonderful job. He kept going back and forth. He wanted it to be not so conversational at first. He wanted it to be more like the old antique books he published, because he published a lot of antique books. It's called ACC Art Books. It was Antique Collectors Club originally, but now it's ACC Art Books. Then, all of a sudden, he came around. He was like, “No, we shouldn't do it like that. We should do it the way you originally suggested.” It took him a year to come to that.    Then I wrote it, and there was an eight-month lag after I wrote it because of the pandemic. I wrote it at the beginning of the pandemic and handed it in on deadline, but it took eight more months for it to be published than it was supposed to. That was kind of interesting. People had to be put on furlough, and then there was a paper shortage, and it wasn't getting to the ports on time. When it finally came out, I was holding my breath until it finally came in.    What I'm hearing from everyone that has read it and reviewed it—I write for Rapaport and Jewelry Connoisseur, and the editor-in-chief of those magazines, Sonia, read it. She said, “I read it straight through because it was so readable. It was like you wanted to keep going.” That made me feel really good.   Sharon: And you're working on another book now.   Beth: Yeah, I'm working on another two books right now.   Sharon: Can you tell us anything about those? I said this book was an overview, but it's very specific. It's not an overview like some of the other books I've read on antiques.   Beth: No, it's very specific because it has all different time periods. It's an antique book, so it could only go to the beginnings of Art Deco. Vintage starts after that. So, it was very specific. I did the grand period as a separate chapter because the Victorian chapter was so big. Because, as you know, there are three different periods in the Victorian era.    Sentimental jewelry is my favorite type of antique jewelry. That's what I collect the most of. That was its own chapter, even though it crosses over Georgian and Victorian. So, I pulled out some things from different periods and made them their own chapters. I also thought alternative materials should be its own chapter. Berlin iron went into alternative materials; rock crystal went into different materials, things that I thought would be interesting on their own and in their own chapters.   Sharon: Did you collect antique jewelry from the beginning, or did you collect all different kinds of jewelry?   Beth: I have collected antique jewelry for the past 25 years. Before that, I wouldn't call myself a collector; I'd call myself a person who wore jewelry I liked, and most of that was by modern jewelers. When I started collecting antique, like most people, I started with the Victorian era. It's easier to understand than the Roman period, which is the first period, and the aesthetic period, which is more fun. When Queen Elizabeth goes into mourning, it's very dark; it's very black. It's called the grand period. It's also where the archaeological revival period comes into play. I think all the things people are redoing today, the crescent moons and swallows and snakes—her engagement ring was a snake ring—I think are pieces with meaning. All those pieces from the Victorian period have meanings that align with flowers. All the different floral motifs have meaning. Those were easy to collect, you could understand them, and they were pretty. So, that's what I started collecting.   Then I went into the Georgian period, not so much the earrings, but the rings. I love Georgian rings. I have a whole collection of Georgian rings. It sits in a safety deposit box. You can't wash your hands with Georgian rings because there's a closed-back setting. During the pandemic, washing your hands so much, you cannot hold them.    I think you asked me if I have different parameters when I collect antique jewelry compared to modern jewelry, and yes, there are parameters for me. I don't really collect modern jewelry. I buy what I like from modern jewelers, from different designers. Yes, I probably have one, two or three pieces from a collection because I like their design aesthetic. If it's wearable, if it's versatile, if it's made well and goes along with my style, I will buy modern jewelry, but I buy antique jewelry mostly for the character and the provenance. I tend to like jewelry that will appreciate with time, which most antique jewelry will, but also for the authenticity, the rarity and the museum quality of it. I also like sentimental jewelry the best. I tend to stick with those or jewelry with symbolism and meaning.   Sharon: You must have dealers who run the other way when they see you coming because you know so much.   Beth: Actually, the dealers love that because they don't have to explain it to you. You just pick up a piece and you'll ask some questions, but people that don't know anything ask way more questions than I will. Quite frankly, antique dealers and people that own antique stores love talking about jewelry. That's why they're in antique jewelry. They love talking about the age and what it is, if they're honest and honorable like the people in my book.   Sharon: I was reading about how there are so many different definitions of collectors. Somebody in the book, I can't remember who it was, had a longer version explaining who has a collection versus who's a collector. There are so many different definitions.   Beth: I don't think it was a definition between who's a collector and who has a collection. I think there are different types of collectors. One type of collector might collect only for historical reasons and never wear it, like art for art's sake. Other people will combine and collect some things for historic importance. For example, I have some pieces I know are historical and really representative of the time period. I don't wear those pieces that much because I want them in perfect condition. That's kind of for art's sake, but mostly I don't believe you should keep your jewelry in a safe or a safety deposit box. Now, those pieces are in a safety deposit box for that reason.    Then there are collectors that only collect a certain period, like only the Georgian period or only the Victorian period. I'm a collector of different periods. I love Art Deco line bracelets with the different cuts of stone. I love the lacey feeling of Edwardian jewelry. I love Georgian rings. I love sentimental jewelry. So, I'm a multi-collector of pieces. Then there are collectors who want to wear their jewelry, so they only collect pieces they can wear every day. I don't think it's collection versus collector; I think it's the type of collector, and there are many types.   Sharon: When you said Georgian, that's my first thought. I have a couple pieces of Georgian, which are so delicate. I just couldn't wear them. A Georgian ring, as you're talking about, you can't wear it.   Beth: You can wear it once in a while. You have to be very careful.  Know how you can wear it and that you cannot get it wet. I've gone to shows where I've worn my Georgian rings. I put a bolt ring on a necklace and stuck it inside so when I washed my hands, I put the rings on the bolt ring so I didn't leave it on the sink. That's what I've always been worried about. You have to take it off to wash.   Sharon: That's a good way to do it. I hadn't thought about that. When does somebody cross over from being an enthusiast, which I consider myself? You might say I have a lot, but I've never discovered what I want to collect. I like bracelets, but I don't collect them. How do you cross over?   Beth: I don't know exactly how you cross over. I have two favorite stones, moonstones and rubies, I think because I'm a hopeful romantic. Moonstones are also lucky. They have a lot of meanings, and I love the fact that they change the light. A good moonstone will change the light. It's just magical. Rubies are all about passion, and I love the two together. They're beautiful mixed together, and I can enjoy antique jewelry or modern jewelry. Anyway, one of my first pieces was one of those slag moonstone necklaces from the Victorian period because I love moonstones.    The second was a turquoise forget-me-not ring. Forget-me-nots have two different meanings. They mean “remember me” from the giver to the wearer, or in mourning jewelry that's all black, they mean the remembrance of somebody that's gone. Mine was a more of a lover's token. I also have a passion for hearts if they're designed well. Not like holiday hearts; more like a double heart with a bowtie. That was a ring I bought from a dealer. It was a Burmese ruby and an old mine cut diamond tied together with a bowtie, which means two hearts together tied as one. Finding out the meaning of these things is wonderful.    I worked for a dealer at one of her shows, and she said to me, “You don't have to own everything you think is pretty. You can just look at it and think it's pretty. You don't have to own it just because you think it's beautiful.” So, I became more selective of what I was going to own, not just because it was pretty. Also having private clients and knowing what they like, I started to buy things to resell, so then I could own them and think they were pretty and then resell them. I didn't keep them for my own collection.    But I think it's a very fine line between being a jewelry enthusiast and being a collector and the type of collector you are. Like I said, I collect from different time periods. One time period I didn't collect from was the Art Nouveau period, except for some pieces that were plique-à-jour enamel that had romantic sayings because it goes along with sentimental jewelry. I thought it wasn't very wearable until I helped Macklowe Gallery and Peter Schaffer and realized there were different ways to wear them. It was a really good learning experience.   Sharon: I can see why. What do you look for? You say you became more selective. What do you look for?   Beth: Like I mentioned before, authenticity, verity. I don't see it everywhere. There are Victorian pieces that were made during the Industrial Revolution that you can find. They're either exactly the same piece or pieces that are like it that were made by the same maker. You can find the same snake ring by the same manufacturer again and again, even if it's a little bit different. I try and find the snake ring you can't find everywhere. I have five different snake rings. Two of them you can find in different places, I think, but I love them. I kept them because those are the rings you can wear every day.    Sharon: As your knowledge and your collection, whatever you want to call it, has grown, do you think you curate it more in a sense?   Beth: Yes, I do. I think it's been curated now to be very sentimental, very meaningful. I also love different styles of chains and charms, so I love creating charm necklaces that have different meanings. One will be the travel charm necklace; one will be the love lock and protection necklace; one will be only the protection necklace. When I collect interesting charms, I'll make different necklaces out of them. They'll all be on different chains so I don't have to keep changing it around.   Sharon: Thank you so much for being here today.   Beth: Thank you for having me. I really appreciate it. Hopefully I answered all your questions.   We will have photos posted on the website. Please head to TheJewelryJourney.com to check them out.   Thank you again for listening. Please leave us a rating and review so we can help others start their own jewelry journey.

Amadeus Wolfgang Mozart was a prolific genius who has inspired people for centuries. I think we can count the movie "Amadus" in that tally, because Mozart's story (and the rumors of Salieri killing Mozart), inspired screenwriter Peter Schaffer to craft a brilliant play which inspired Milos Foreman to create a timeless movie that looks and sounds fantastic. ​​But, what about the real story. Was Mozart a filthy man-child? Did Salieri really say he killed Mozart? And, what about the Requiem. Dear Listener, all will be revealed as my friend David, a classical music fan, joins me to dive into the world of "Amadeus".

Sports super-agent Peter Schaffer heard the words no parent ever wants to hear – your child has cancer.  And then he heard it again. Negotiating more than $1 billion in contracts for NFL Hall-of-Famers, athletes and coaches is worthless when your teen-aged children have been diagnosed with Hodgkin’s lymphoma, a cancer of the lymphatic system that afflicts nearly 9,000 Americans every year.  What are the chances of having both your children contract this non- hereditary disease? Perhaps one in a hundred million. Peter’s daughter Lily knew something was wrong a few years ago when she started having uncontrollable and unbearable itching over her entire body.  She couldn’t sleep, stand up or even eat. After six months of suffering and visits to dermatologists, allergists and even a psychiatrist, Lily still didn’t have an answer.  But when Peter and his wife Alison took Lily to Children’s Hospital at the CU Anschutz Medical Campus, they discovered the true cause: Hodgkin’s, stage 2B. Then, at the start of the pandemic this February, Peter’s son Gavin, a burly high-school lacrosse player, started losing a lot of weight.  At first, doctors thought he had contracted COVID-19, which at the time was a mysterious disease.  But when COVID tests came back negative, and Gavin’s health worsened, they turned to Children’s for the answer, and it was devastating:  Hodgkin’s, stage 4.  What would you do as a parent?  How did sister and brother battle through the treatments?  And who got to ring the Warrior Bell at Children’s Hospital, a sign of good health? Dr. Brian Greffe, Pediatric Oncologist and Medical Director of the H.O.P.E. clinic at the Children’s Hospital at the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus, treated both Lily and Gavin.  Dr. Greffe joins Peter on the podcast and shares insights on the disease, breakthrough treatments at Children’s and how the kids were unstoppable in their fight with cancer.    #UnstoppablePodcasts

That movie version of “Amadeus” prompted millions of new classical music fans to snap up any recordings of Mozart’s “Requiem” they could find. And what about the music historians? They couldn’t even find comfort in the old public relations adage, “There’s no such thing as bad press as long as they spell your name right!” They felt even the movie’s title was bogus. Mozart never signed his middle name “Amadeus,” preferring the French version, “Amadé.”

Fine Music Radio — A groundbreaking new ballet featuring Cape Town Ballet and using digital 3-D projections opens at Artscape Opera this week. MOZART AND SALIERI is based on the alleged rivalry between Mozart and the Italian composer Salieri, a story first published by Pushkin and then made famous in Peter Schaffer’s adaptation for film, Amadeus. Now, the dancer and choreographer MARC GOLDBERG has set this story as a ballet which he himself has designed and choreographed. Apparently it has taken him some 7 years to bring the project to fruition and in People of Note this week, Rodney Trudgeon will be talking to MARC GOLDBERG about this innovative and exciting new production.

This week's guest is a current NFL Super Agent, and former college lacrosse coach and reality tv star...the one and only Peter Schaffer! You may know him from his show on Esquire "The Agent" or perhaps from his work with Hall of Famers Barry Sanders or Jerome Bettis (to name a few). What you may not know is his deep passion for lacrosse and his continued efforts to help the growth of the game!We apologize for the sound quality, we had a few issues with our recording this week! We'll have it fixed for our next episode. CHECK OUT OUR SPONSORS HERE:www.baggatawaypodcast.com/blank-9

"När vinden vänder" handlar om sex människor som lyckades förverkliga sig och sina musikaliska drömmar mot alla odds. I första delen berättas om Constance Mozart, grovt förtalad hustru till Mozart. Medverkar gör svenska musikvetaren Viveca Servatius, författare till biografin Constance Mozart och brittiska dirigenten Jane Glover, som skrev Mozart's Women.Ordet Constance betyder trogen, trofast, noggrann, beständig. Det här programmet kommer att visa att Constance Mozart var just så. Dessutom var hon mycket musikalisk en god pianist och en ypperlig sångerska. I motsats till hur hon har skildrats av musikhistorikerna, nämligen som ointelligent, omusikalisk och som en försumlig och ovärdig hustru till Mozart.Constance Weber föds i Tyskland 1762 och gifter sig som 20-åring med Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart i Stephansdomen i Wien.De är gifta under drygt nio år och Constance föder i äktenskapet sex barn, varav fyra barn dör i späd ålder. Två söner överlever.Constance lever under en tid när kvinnornas rörelse- och yttrandefrihet alltmer inskränktes, men trots detta kan hon betraktas som musikhistoriens mest nedvärderade kvinna, skriver musikforskaren Viveca Servatius i sin biografi Constance Mozart.-Min bild av Constance Mozart hade formats negativt genom Mozartbiografier och annan kurslitteratur på Musikvetenskapliga institutionen, berättar musikvetaren Viveca Servatius i programmet.-I den ena Mozartbiografin efter den andra framställdes Constance som den grå askungen, som genom Mozarts naiva kärlek långsamt växer in i rollen som den bortskämda fru Mozart.Enligt dessa är Constance en konstig, lat, otrogen kvinna som inte förstår Mozarts storhet. Men så läser Viveca Servatius biografin 1791: Mozart's Last Year av Robbins Landon och hennes bild av Mozarts hustru förändras totalt.Dirigenten Jane Glover har dirigerat i operahusen över hela västvärlden, inte minst Mozartoperor. Under en period var hon konstnärlig ledare för London Mozart Players.-Den briljanta pjäsen Amadeus av Peter Schaffer blev den förfärliga filmen Amadeus av Milo Forman. Filmen låtsas vara en sann historia. Personen som överlever moraliskt är Mozart, medan Constance skildras som ett blåst, vulgärt fnask, menar dirigenten Jane Glover.-Den person som startade förtalet av Constance, och som var den negativa mytens upphov, var Mozarts far Leopold Mozart, som i det längsta försökte hindra sonen att gifta sig med Constance Weber.  Musikhistorikerna svalde Leopolds obarmhärtiga lögner, förklarar Jane Glover.

Om Constance Mozart, förtalad hustru till kände tonsättaren. Musikvetaren Viveca Servatius och dirigenten Jane Glover. Del 1 av 5 av Birgitta Tollan. Birgitta Tollans nya serie "När vinden vänder" handlar om sex människor som lyckades förverkliga sig och sina musikaliska drömmar ”mot alla odds”. Medverkar gör svenska musikvetaren Viveca Servatius, författare till biografin Constance Mozart och brittiska dirigenten Jane Glover, som skrev Mozart's Women. Ordet Constance betyder trogen, trofast, noggrann, beständig. Det här programmet kommer att visa att Constance Mozart var just så. Dessutom mycket musikalisk – en god pianist och en ypperlig sångerska. I motsats till hur hon har skildrats av musikhistorikerna, nämligen som ointelligent, omusikalisk och som en försumlig och ovärdig hustru till Mozart. Constance Weber föds i Tyskland 1762 och gifter sig som 20-åring med Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart i Stephansdomen i Wien. De är gifta under drygt nio år och Constance föder i äktenskapet sex barn, varav fyra barn dör i späd ålder. Två söner överlever. ”Constance lever under en tid när kvinnornas rörelse- och yttrandefrihet alltmer inskränktes, men trots detta kan hon betraktas som musikhistoriens mest nedvärderade kvinna”, skriver musikforskaren Viveca Servatius i sin biografi Constance Mozart. -Min bild av Constance Mozart hade formats negativt genom Mozartbiografier och annan kurslitteratur på Musikvetenskapliga institutionen, berättar musikvetaren Viveca Servatius i programmet. -I den ena Mozartbiografin efter den andra framställdes Constance som den grå askungen, som genom Mozarts naiva kärlek långsamt växer in i rollen som ’den bortskämda fru Mozart’. Enligt dessa är Constance en konstig, lat, otrogen kvinna som inte förstår Mozarts storhet. Men så läser Viveca Servatius biografin 1791: Mozart's Last Year av Robbins Landon och hennes bild av Mozarts hustru förändras totalt. Dirigenten Jane Glover har dirigerat i operahusen över hela västvärlden, inte minst Mozartoperor. Under en period var hon konstnärlig ledare för London Mozart Players. -Den briljanta pjäsen Amadeus av Peter Schaffer blev den förfärliga filmen Amadeus av Miloš Forman. Filmen låtsas vara en sann historia. Personen som överlever moraliskt är Mozart, medan Constance skildras som ett blåst, vulgärt fnask, menar dirigenten Jane Glover. -Den person som startade förtalet av Constance, och som var den negativa mytens upphov, var Mozarts far Leopold Mozart, som i det längsta försökte hindra sonen att gifta sig med Constance Weber. Och musikhistorikerna svalde Leopolds obarmhärtiga lögner, förklarar Jane Glover. Constance är i verkligheten en bra tjej med en stark känsla för ekonomi. Hon är festlig och älskar livet, och mellan Constance och Wolfgang brinner en stark passion. Leopold Mozart avskyr Constances familj Weber. Hos dem musiceras det ständigt och två av Constances tre systrar, Josepha och Aloisia, är skickliga sångerskor, ja, Aloisia hyllas som sin tids viktigaste sopran. Äldsta systern Josepha blir den allra första Nattens Drottning i Mozarts opera Trollflöjten. Constance själv sjunger bl a sopransolot Et incarnatus est vid uruppförandet 1783, av den då ofullbordade Mozarts stora C-mollmässa, i Benediktinerkyrkan i Salzburg. En mycket svårsjungen mässa. Under åren med Constance skapar Wolfgang sina bästa verk. Vinden vänder 1791 när Constance, 29 år gammal, blir änka. Mozart avlider endast 35 år gammal. Constance överlever honom med mer än 50 år! För Constance vänder vinden återigen när hon efter Mozarts död möter den danske diplomaten Georg Nissen, som är utstationerad i Wien. 1809 gifter de sig och skapar ett harmoniskt, lyckligt äktenskap. De bosätter sig mellan 1810 och 1820 i hans hemstad Köpenhamn. Nissen skriver en biografi över Mozart och Constance ser till att biografin trycks efter Nissens död 1826.

Based on Peter Schaffer's hit play, the movie version of Amadeus won eight Academy Awards, including Best Picture, Actor and Director.  Dan and Vicky watched the Director's  Cut, which has about 30 minutes of footage not included in the original release version. They discuss the historical, political and personal climate around the time the movie came out on September 19, 1984 and also talk about some of their favorite pop culture obsessions from the past week.   Go back to 18th century Vienna with Dan and Vicky on their second Hot Date!  

From sixteenth-century Venice we move back a century and travel north to Mainz, Germany, where a “madman” named Johannes Gutenberg has invented a radical new method of making books. Like any technological genius, Gutenberg needs venture capitalists to finance his workshop and skilled craftsmen and designers to turn his ideas into reality. He finds a financier in Johann Fust, a wealthy merchant and seller of manuscript books. Indirectly, this relationship also brings in a new craftsman when Fust calls his adopted son, Peter Schaffer, back from Paris, where Peter is making his name as a scribe, and forces him to become Gutenberg’s apprentice. Like many people in the early days of printing, Peter is initially repelled by the ugliness and the mechanical appearance of books produced using movable type, an invention that to him seems more satanic than divinely inspired. But Fust will not release Peter from his apprenticeship, and the young scribe is soon learning to man the press and cut type as Gutenberg embarks, in secret, on the creation of the massive Bible with which his name will henceforth be linked. As he works, Peter too comes to appreciate–and in time to enhance–the beauty of printed books. Publication, though, takes longer and proves more difficult than anyone has expected. As the process drags on, tempers fray and tension rises, quire by quire. Alix Christie apprenticed twice as a letterpress printer, and her experience informs and enriches Gutenberg’s Apprentice (HarperCollins, 2014). In this interview, we also talk about the ongoing transition from print to electronic books, what will tip the balance, and how our understanding of the first great technological revolution in books may prepare us for the second.
