description: Nannerl Mozart was a musical prodigy who seemed to have a brilliant future. But once her younger brother Wolfgang began composing symphonies at the age of five her career and talents were utterly eclipsed. Here at last is Nannerl's heart-wrenching tale. It's the story of her undying passion for music; her relationship with her miracle boy brother; and her life as the other Mozart the one forgotten by history. The acclaimed Carolyn Meyer has written a powerful historical novel about a little-known but gifted musician who never stopped dreaming. Includes an author's note.
