My friend Barbara Quick and I have both published classical music novels
with major publishers (Viking Penguin and Harper Collins) to outstanding
reviews. Here are the Amazon links if anyone would like to buy one for a
friend this holiday season.

MARRYING MOZART
"A grand little mini-opera, filled with twists of affection, musical
politics, love, loss and chocolate." Seattle Times

In 1777, the young composer Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart walked into the
parlor of a musician, Fridolin Weber, who had four beautiful daughters.
Mozart would compose some of his greatest music for them, and eventually
marry one…but not the first one he loved.

VIVALDI'S VIRGINS

In this enthralling new novel, Barbara Quick recreates 18th century
Venice at the height of its splendor and decadence. A story of longing
and intrigue, half-told truths and toxic lies, Vivaldi's Virgins
unfolds through the eyes of Anna Maria dal Violin, one of the elite
musicians cloistered in the foundling home where Antonio
Vivaldi—known as the Red Priest of Venice—is maestro and
composer.

Fourteen-year-old Anna Maria, abandoned at the Ospedale della Pietà
as an infant, is determined to find out who she is and where she came
from.
