The Mozartin is recommending today ...
... in alphabetical order:
Augsburg
A plenty of highly interesting information about my beloved hometown. Learn about its 2,000-year-old history, and undertake an interactive
sightseeing tour
which I recommend in particular. Or enjoy a magnificent
panorama view from the Perlach Tower next to the gorgeous City Hall (description only in German). Or check the webcam on the Rathausplatz with City Hall and Perlachtower. - This site is for all those who wish to learn more about this splendid city.
Bäsle Letters
Of course, these mustn't be left out, and I don't want them no way withhold from you either, since they are no longer private anyway. Out of fourteen letters to me, today only nine have been preserved, or are at least known. It is those you can read here in the German original, and find a facsimile. But don't ask me what was written in the missing ones - after so many years I have it simply forgotten. - Available in German only.
Bayreuth
Even if my presence in the city of Bayreuth is a latent one these days, a visit to this old, margravial residence is absolutely worthwhile, and this not only due to Richard Wagner. Of all
points of interest
I have always got most impressed by the gorgeous old Opera House - by the interior to be precise.
Deutsche Mozartstadt Augsburg
An extensive site presenting biographies about über Wolfgang, Uncle Leopold, the gentlemen Stein and Lotter, as well as yours truly. Furthermore you will find Mozart related institutions in Augsburg, plus event sites against historical background. Don't forget to check the current complete Event Programme 2010.
Clear presentation, informative - what else do you want?
Mozart Ways
Mozart on the road. This highly professional site leads us to nearly all places Wolfgang ever travelled to or through. Europewide! The towns and cities are getting introduced and put into relation to Mozart. Very instructive and fascinating, particularly the interactive maps. And yet, apart from all the information, please do keep in mind what an ordeal travelling basically was in the 18th century!
Mozart's Favorite Sister-In-Law, Sophie Weber-Haibl
A vivid site of both fiction letters and diary of Wolfgang's youngest sister-in-law, including links to further sites about Sophie's family. - Charming, entertaining and informative. A must!
Prechtls Welttheater
Five pricelessly disrespectful watercolour paintings by Michael Mathias Prechtl, perfectly following the infamous style of Wolfgang's letters to me. Among others, there is mon cousin in unusual posing - not recommended for oversensitive characters! -, little me, as well as the Weber ladies in Mannheim. - Highly recommended, however merely for people with a good sense of humour. The text is available only in German.
The Mozart Cafe
The most entertaining Mozart website I've ever seen. A must for people with a sense of humour. Very funny, full of lovely cartoons, stories, a great lot of internal links, and and and. A fantastic discovery tour about W.A.Mzt!
And those who would like ...
... to enjoy some easy going chat on various topics concerning my cousin - this is the right place. A very friendly, international forum for private, less strictly scholarly discussions.
