The interview was recorded on November 25, 2015, during my visit to Dr. Stein’s office in the historic building at Münstergasse 9 in Zürich. It is known as the Salomon-Gessner-Haus zum Schwanen {note the name on the door in the photo}. Dr. Stein told me that Goethe had visited Salomon Gessner in the house, and Mozart played his violin there at the age of ten when he and his father were passing through Zürich on a European tour to show off the prodigy boy’s genius.
