She came to Vienna to find out who her grandfather was. She found a museum that doesn't exist.
When Sofia Andreou arrives in Vienna following her grandfather's death, she has only two things to guide her: a key that belongs to no lock she can find, and the feeling that the quiet man she never fully knew was keeping something from the world.
What she finds is Otto Brenner eighty-one years old, grey-cardigan, iron key in his pocket the curator of a museum that appears on no map, has no sign on its door, and can only be found by people who have lost something musical.
Inside: four thousand eight hundred and forty-seven handwritten songs. Compositions from five centuries of anonymous donors. People who felt something too large for ordinary life and did the only thing available to them. Wrote it down. Sent it somewhere. Trusted that someone was keeping it.
Sofia's grandfather was one of them.
Over thirty years. Four hundred and twelve pieces. All of it anonymous. All of it given away.
As Sofia learns the museum's secrets and the stories of the forgotten composers whose songs arrived across the centuries, from a woman in 1623 Venice who heard music that wasn't there, to a man in 1922 Paris who wrote the truest thing of his life in a café on a rainy afternoon she begins to understand not only who her grandfather was, but who she is meant to become.
The Museum of Forgotten Songs is a literary mystery that moves between present-day Vienna and four centuries of European history, asking the question at the heart of every creative life:
Does the music belong to the person who writes it? Or does it belong to the silence it fills?
Every song in this novel is real.
Each piece referenced throughout the book was written and performed by the author a musician and composer with over 800 original songs. Links to every song appear throughout the novel, allowing readers to hear the music as they read.
Some songs wait centuries to be heard.
This one found you.
