This announcement has reached us from Armin Brinzing, director of the Bibliotheca Mozartiana at the Mozarteum in Salzburg:
Thanks to the generous support of a private donor, the Salzburg Mozarteum Foundation has been able to acquire an extensive autograph manuscript by Mozart. The manuscript is a copy of a work by Eugenio di Ligniville in the hands of Wolfgang and Leopold Mozart, which was in a private collection until now. The original autograph will be on display in the Mozart Residence during the Salzburg Festival.
For more information, please see the Mozarteum website.
