Mozart, Marcos Portugal e o seu tempo / and their time

Author(s):

David Cranmer | Editor

The present volume brings together texts from national and international researchers who conduct studies, on one hand, about Mozart—the most emblematic composer of the last quarter of the 18th century—and, on the other, about his younger contemporary, Marcos Portugal—a composer who was perhaps more representative of Europe in his time and, without a doubt, more widely popular than Mozart himself—as well as about the era in which both are situated. The apparent disparity between the lives and fortunes of these two composers results in a broad and fascinating discussion of the contexts in which their works were composed and received.
