It's spring time in Italy. Two boys slip out of rehearsal and into the garden behind the church.

Summary
One whole year, and all Mozart got were a few concertos around the city for the guilt-ridden nobility, and The Magic Flute, for people who hadn’t got any idea if the composer was even alive or dead. Did he wish for a louder silence?
Did he crave an even longer intermezzo before the inevitable resurrection?
And when he - Antonio Salieri - dies, will it be the exact opposite?Salieri meets a familiar spectre in the night.

Summary
Hi, so what if Mozart did finish the Requiem? What if he finished it and we just don't have it any more? Salieri and Mozart did indeed finish the Requiem Mass commissioned by van Wolsegg. The last parts, from the Sanctus on, were never found and were presumed to have never been written. But they were written. Moments before death, Mozart bequeathed his last pieces of music to Salieri as a parting gift. In accordance with Mozart's wish they were never shared and never played publicly. The concluding pages of Mozart's Requiem were never recovered because Salieri burned them shortly before his own death. This is the story of their composition.

Summary
Salieri is perfectly sure he knows what is going on. He has been preparing his plan for so long it feels almost real. However something unexpected happens: Mozart feels sick at The Magic Flute première. Maybe Salieri was not so wise as he thought he had been.

In which Wolfgang writes Martern Aller Arten for Caterina just because he wanted her to shout it to Salieri's face, since those damned Italians are musical idiots. (and yes, they know nothing about love)

Summary
Mozart sighed, thoroughly exasperated, pacing back and forth. “Then I don’t understand you! You’re impossible, you damned Italian! What do you want from me!?”
What! He wanted to destroy him, of course! And then he wanted to be him. He wanted his genius, but also wanted him dead — wanted God dead — ; he wanted to save God from that sick body and wanted that sick body, he wanted him. And wanted him dead. He wanted to consume him. He wanted that sacred content to finally be poured into a form just as sacred: his own. And then people would immediately recognize in Salieri’s devoted body that divine talent — they would see the miracle of Sense. Hearing the music, they would picture no other body than his, in perfect harmony. At last, God would be playing on a tuned instrument. That was what he wanted!
He looked at Mozart. Doe eyes. Rosebud lips. French nose. A dainty, coquettish soprano -

Salieri realizes that Mozart reminds him of a bird. And what do you do with birds?
You cage them.

Summary
Salieri took righteous offense at Mozart, at his unjust measure of genius, at what it meant for himself. Salieri's daemon had a slightly different response.

Summary
Mozart has again created something beyond mere brilliance, a piece fit to make Salieri weep even in the silence of this room. But this room is a barren mess of empty wine bottles and discarded paper. It is cold enough in here to chill a man to the bone.
