| Synopsis: |
This book contains nuggets of the musical facts you didn't know you needed to know, and oodles of useful information you shouldn't be without. It includes a section on celebrated composers as well as potted plots of famous operas, retold, as you've never heard them before. It's informative, engrossing, entertaining and often hilarious. Written by the authors of the "Classic FM Pocket Book of Music", this more substantial volume of trivia should be on any serious music-lover's shelves. |
