Mahler Remembered (Composers remembered series)

by NormanLebrecht (Author)

Synopsis

No composer has had a greater influence on the music of the twentieth century than Gustav Mahler. And in Mahler Remembered, Norman Lebrecht, an acknowledged authority on the life and work of the seminal composer, compiles a unique volume that the Birmingham Post called breathtakingly interesting, a collection of what [Mahler's] friends, rivals and enemies said about the inspired . . . man . . . whose symphonies are now played more often than Tchaikovsky's.
