so I am looking into what could have attributed to Mozart dying at the age of 35 and the topic of LACK OF SUN comes up.

this entire movie it is basically christmas week, with snow all over the place and it flurrying.

Oh God. Fortune vomits on my eiderdown once more.

No it's not. What about the outdoor concert, with people strolling and even riding horses around, while Mozart is playing a piano concerto in a baroque garden? We have plenty of outdoor scenes in fine weather. The freezing horrible conditions at the end, and in the framing story, is what's called pathetic fallacy, making the weather fit the mood.
