Mozart and his wife Constanze stayed here in 1787 while he was working on his opera "Don Giovanni". He finished the overture in Bertramka's garden pavillion just a few hours before its premiere at Prague's Estates Theatre. I abstract Mozart's piano, still standing in Bertramka's music room, by backlighting the scene, allowing the room around it to fade into darkness. The single rose, placed on the piano's lid every day, is also abstracted, as is the tiny statue of a musician standing before the window, a symbol of Mozart's music and perhaps his diminutive size.
