An Armchair Guide to Classical Music
Hardback
Publication Date: 01/02/2007
With more than 200 stunning full-colour photographs, "Classical Destinations" takes its readers on a tour of the history and geography of classical music, examining the lives of the great composers in relation to their places of birth, education, triumphs, and failures. It then turns full-circle to describe how, through their achievements, the great composers came to influence the places where they lived and performed. Within its pages, readers will visit Venice during the time of Vivaldi, Salzburg as Mozart's prodigious talents were emerging, Leipzig in the era of Mendelssohn and Schumann, Vienna where Mozart overcame incurable deafness to enchant the world, as well as the dramatic landscapes of Norway and Finland that inspired Grieg and Sibelius.
