Vienna nocturne : a novel Vivien Shotwell.
"In late eighteenth-century London, when a young girl takes her first singing lessons with a mysterious castrato in exile, her life is forever changed. At sixteen, having learned everything he can teach her, talented Anna journeys to Naples and Venice to sing as a soprano in Italy's greatest opera houses...Within a few years, Anna is invited to sing in Vienna by the emperor himself. There, she meets Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, a young virtuoso pianist and prodigious composer...Rich in historical detail and beautifully wrought, Vienna Nocturne is a dramatic tour de force about one woman's struggle to find love and fame in an eighteenth-century world that limits her at every turn."-- Jacket.
