Mozart’s Sister

 

What is the story of the other Mozart?

An investigation into a 250 year old musical mystery.

For the first 18 years of her life, Mozart’s sister shared equal billing with her brother. Musical partners and collaborators, Wolfgang Mozart and Maria-Anna Mozart played together before Kings and Queens, and were the talk of Europe. What happened to her?

Forced into retirement by age 16 because she was a woman, a stunning new investigation explores why she was retired against her will and the explosive theory: did Maria-Anna Mozart continue to compose in secret?

From multi-awarded Director/Producer Madeleine Hetherton-Miau and Producer Rebecca Barry, MOZART’S SISTER is a ‘musical-true-crime’ story that explores the lost talent of Maria-Anna Mozart, and whether she is the musical force behind some of the classical Mozart masterpieces we know and love.
