'All of the entries are written in clear, accessible prose and are well-organized, usually with multiple subheadings and capitalized cross references. ... This first resource to cover both Mozart's life and oeuvre is a browser's delight ... An indispensable addition to all collections.' Library Journal
'... a goldmine of insights and sidelights ...' The Times Literary Supplement
'... rounded in-depth reference tool for all interested in Mozart ... an invaluable and fascinating resource.' Opera Now
'... concise and well written articles are provided by a who's who of modern Mozart scholars. ... a tremendously useful quick reference tool.' The Gramophone
'Like all good single volume encyclopedias, this one is also a delight for the casual browser who is not looking for anything in particular. Opening the book to read in an idle moment invariably provides both pleasure and instruction.' Opera News
'... a superior production ... seems destined to take its place on the shelves as an indispensable reference for Mozartians ...' Goldberg
'... contains some of the finest writing on Mozart I have read.' New York Review of Books
'... a handsome, lavishly produced volume which offers easy access to all the information most music lovers will need about a favourite composer.' Sunday Times
'... with this work Mozart the man ... reads as real as we're going to get him, outside of his own letters. ... you're also not likely to avoid reaching for the book again and again ... This large assembly of writers/critics/scholars gets into it and gets at it, and thoughts long considered, reworked, and finally spun out on these pages come across with nothing less than true force ...' Fanfare
'... heavyweight and comprehensive book ... Most of what ... I have seen is unreservedly recommendable. ... The book's shorter pieces are also excellent, being informative and succinct. ... Unimprovable! A group of substantial appendices occupies the last 100 pages. Four of them cover films, DVDs and videos, Mozart organizations, and websites. Three others are of special interest: a detailed worklist, annotated, dated as far as is possible, and with the keys and Köchel numbers indicated; an index of works ordered by Köchel number; and an index of works by genre. ... The first two of these constitute the last word on updating Köchel - an important addition to Mozart studies and yet another reason for buying the book.' Opera
Mozart's enduring popularity, among music lovers as a composer and among music historians as a subject for continued study, lies at the heart of The Cambridge Mozart Encyclopedia. This reference book functions both as a starting point for information on specific works, people, places and concepts as well as a summation of current thinking about Mozart. The extended articles on genres reflect the latest in scholarship and new ways of thinking about the works while the articles on people and places provide historical framework, as well as interpretation. It also includes a series of thematic articles that cast a wide net over the eighteenth century and Mozart's relationship to it: these include Austria, Germany, aesthetics, travel, Enlightenment, Mozart as a reader and contemporaneous medicine, among others. The worklist provides the most up-to-date account in English of the authenticity and chronology of Mozart's compositions.
