£45.00


Robin Holloway's 'Music's Odyssey' is a book about classical music unlike any other. With the insights of a composer himself, he takes us to the essence of baroque, classical, romantic and modern classical music - lesser-known composers and their works, as well as the greats - through close readings, daring comparisons and brilliant insights. Holloway characterizes, illuminates and energizes his subject with musical empathy,sureness of judgement and mastery of descriptive language, tracing not only the evolution of forms of music but the history of feeling and the emotion behind the creation and enjoyment of composition.
