  • No Script: The Podcast | S3 Episode 6: "Amadeus" by Peter Shaffer

    "Music, finished as no music is ever finished. Displace one note and there would be diminishment. Displace one phrase and the structure would fall." This is one of the descriptions Antonio Salieri gives of Mozart's musical genius in Peter Shaffer's brilliant play "Amadeus." This week on "No Script," Jackson and Jacob take on the highly fictionalized account of Salieri's jealousy . . . and his war against God. Listen in!
