The Genius of Mozart is a BBC documentary series presented by Charles Hazlewood, about Mozart's extraordinary life - beginning with his childhood as a travelling musical prodigy and ending with his tragic death at the tender age of 35. The series consists of three episodes: Miracle of Nature; A Passion for the Stage; and The First Romantic.
The Genius of Mozart: Episode 1 - Miracle of Nature
The story begins with the composer's father Leopold with whom Mozart conducted a passionate and tortured correspondence. It is Leopold who knows Mozart's secrets. And there is another voice: that of the music itself.
The Genius of Mozart: Episode 2 - A Passion for the Stage
In this episode, Charles Hazlewood examines three of Mozart's greatest operas, and shows how The Magic Flute. Idomeneo, and The Marriage of Figaro revolutionised the musical theatre.
The Genius of Mozart: Episode 3 - The First Romantic
This episode examines how, towards the end of his life, Mozart mastered the language of instrumental and orchestral writing - and how both love and loss provoked in him an extraordinary burst of creativity.
