A HOUSE FOR MOZART

Wilhelm Hozbauer, Francois Valenting and Dieter Irresberger

Perhaps the best-known and best-beloved music festival in the world is in Salzburg, Mozart’s home. This detailed and beautifully produced book documents the three-year transformation of a centuries-old building in the center of Salzburg’s precious historic district into a gleaming, modern concert and exhibition venue for the festival. From excavation to finishing touches, these photos show the unexpected detail and brutal beauty of the process, all with magnificent Austrian Alps in the background. Photographers Rainer Iglar, Michael Mauracher and Andrew Phelps create an engaging story through their rich color imagery. One volume contains striking images and the other architectural drawings.
