{"product_id":"lost-mozart","title":"Lost Mozart","description":"\u003cb\u003eA college music student discovers a long-lost Mozart sketch and sets out to finish the piece and give its world premiere.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNoah Wideman is an overqualified music student trying to graduate with a degree no one asked for. It's 1987. His parents had hoped for medicine or lawanything with a parking spacebut instead, he's scraping by on odd jobs and the kind of hope only a twenty-one-year-old with a library card can muster. One of those jobs is at Allegro FM, the local classical station, where he stumbles into an unlikely friendship with Bertram Bobker: honey-voiced, immaculately dressed, and somewhere north of eighty.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eWhen Noah is unceremoniously fired, Bertram quits in protest. Soon, Noah is spending afternoons with Bertram's closest friends: aging gentlemen who sip Poire Williams, collect dusty manuscripts, and speak of dead composers as if they might still RSVP to dinner.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThat's where Noah discovers a handwritten sketch which looks suspiciouslyimpossiblylike Mozart. An unfinished string quartet. The kind of thing you don't just \u003ci\u003efind\u003c\/i\u003e. But Noah is young and full of gumption, so he decides to finish it and bring it to the world, thinking this is the answer to everyone's problems.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eEnter Eos: a fellow student, brilliant and intimidating, with a silence that unnerves professors. Together, they launch a wild plan, part heist, part heartfelt gamble on the power of music, friendship, and second chances. Because who's to say one more piece by Mozart can't still upend a few lives, mend a few hearts, and maybe even cover first and last month's rent?","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57513587212661,"sku":"9798895654163","price":30.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9798895654163.jpg?v=1787220361","url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/lost-mozart","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
