Reviews

"Can you imagine living without music? I can't...and among the many pleasures music offers is that act of sharing it with others, guiding friends to new discoveries or to old favorites. And that's exactly what this book does - with authority, enthusiasm, and above all, passion." Martin Alsop, Music Director, Baltimore Symphony Orchestra
