'It is astounding that Keefe opens up new ground in large areas ... A far-reaching book ... All in all, a first-class monograph, outstandingly produced and printed, which will be read cover to cover as well as used for reference.' Manfred Hermann Schmid, Mozart-Jahrbuch 2013


...This is a fascinating, deeply informed effort... --Journal
