This book is in good condition. The cover is worn, especially on the edges. The previous owners name is marked and stamped on the inside front cover.
A grand little reference work. Pocket-sized but dense, this book tackles one hundred well-known symphonic works, ranging from those with clear stories like 'Carnival of the Animals', to more typical classical pieces. These kind of works just don't exist anymore! Articulately written, exploring both the context and meaning of the work, but without being either academic or needlessly commercial. Just someone with a genuine interest in classical greats writing simple listening guides for the regular viewer. Those were the days.
