But with hundreds of recordings released every year, discovering the jewels is a challenge, for newcomers as well as for connoisseurs." "In one hundred original essays, New York Times classical music critic Allan Kozinn offers the ultimate collector's guide, a chronicle of the composers and performers who stir our souls. Kozinn takes you through the core repertory of Bach, Handel, Mozart, Beethoven, and Tchaikovsky, from the medieval meditations of Machaut, through the concertos of Vivaldi, Schubert's lider, the folk-inspired nobility of Mussorgsky, Dvorak, and Sibelius, and the blossoming of American sounds and the rise of minimalism. He considers the legacy of performers and conductors, including the early-music innovations of Sequentia, the idiosyncracies of Glenn Gould, and the far-reaching baton of Leonard Bernstein. He showers you with details, such as the antiaircraft explosions captured in harpsichordist Wanda Landowska's 1940 Paris recordings of Scarlatti sonatas, and explores the personal and historical context of every work. Kozinn's essays on the most dazzling recordings available provide both practical guidance for building a library and insight into the transcendent power of classical music."--BOOK JACKET.
