Nannerl - Sister
Kate Molleson explores Mozart’s relationship with his sister Nannerl, from their close bond in childhood to estrangement by the end of their lives.
Kate Molleson looks at the people who made Mozart, through their influence, inspiration and by pushing him to greater heights. Today: his sister Maria Anna, or as everyone called her, Nannerl. She was a brilliant musician too, and Wolfgang wrote several pieces for them to play together. Inseparable as children, they created fantasy worlds together. But as they grew up, gender roles, family politics and contrasting personalities cracked open their bond. By the time of Wolfgang’s death, they were no longer speaking.
