Sky Arts: Mozart Month campaign script

Promax UK Nomination - Best Script or Copy

Trailer to promote Sky Arts’ Mozart season celebrating the 250th anniversary of his birth

V/O script:

Tumbling from the composer’s imagination to his fingertips, to paper, to orchestra

It circled an emperor’s ear

Then danced for all and sundry, who analysed, interpreted, rejected, worshipped

And it became loved

Enticing schoolchildren, confusing scholars, enchanting musicians

Today it attends weddings and funerals

Accompanies love affairs and break ups

Thunders down motorways, calms tourists taxiing on runways

Sparkles in elevators and restaurants, down phones on hold

Walks down the street whistled by the postman

250 years after he was born, Mozart’s music lives on

Barenboim plays, Bartoli sings

And Goodall examines the legacy of Mozart

Throughout January on Artsworld
