Bereik en inhoud
Two versions of a letter written after a review of Mozart's letters translated by Robert Spaethling was published which indicates Mozart's smutty infantilism, previously attributed by Sunday Times critic James Fenton as an invention by Shaffer, an assertion repeated every capsule review printed by the Times after that; in light of this review he hopes that an apology will be forthcoming.
