Customer Review:

Father M. Owen Lee, who is known for his erudite commentaries on Metropolitan Opera broadcasts has recently published another book about the Wagner's Ring Cycle, called "Athena Sings.

The Romantic Generation (The Charles Eliot Norton Lectures)
from Harvard University Press

Customer Review:

One of the most interesting essays I've ever read. Exciting the chapters devoted to Chopin and Schumann. Not only pianists can benefit from its reading, but every musician will find extraordinary subtle commentaries and analysis. A book made devoutly.

Chopin In Paris: The Life And Times Of The Romantic Composer
from Da Capo Press
Price: $12.89

Customer Review:

Allow me to preface the review by saying that I am a frequent reader (...meaning not illiterate...), and someone who despises the Sparknotes/Wikipedia/etc summary-culture that's so popular in today's (my own!) generation.
With that being said, I learned just as much about Chopin from the... more info

Mendelssohn: A Life in Music
from Oxford University Press, USA
Price: $26.96

Customer Review:

I bought the hardback edition which is/was a lot more expensive - wish I had waited! Actually, it matters not a jot; this book is great value, regardless of cost.
It took me three readings to absorb most of the contents; for this biography is densely written, full of fact and detail and without... more info

Beethoven`s Piano Sonatas: A Short Companion
from Yale University Press

Customer Review:

This is a nice read for hard-core Beethoven-heads. It'll change the way you approach playing the pieces, or at the least change the way you listen to them. There's nothing wrong with just listening to the music and absorbing it, not worrying about why a particular change is brilliant or why it... more info

Classical Form: A Theory of Formal Functions for the Instrumental Music of Haydn, Mozart, and Beethoven
from Oxford University Press, USA
Price: $39.56

Customer Review:

Caplin's book is, on the whole, an excellent revival of the Formlehre (study of form) tradition. His methodology of examining "formal functions" (i.e. how a particular musical module functions in the context of a full piece, rather than just labelling it) is incredibly revealing, and therefore his... more info

Great Romantic Cello Concertos in Full Score
from Dover Publications
Price: $12.21

Customer Review:

Three great cello concertos are included in this edition, with perhaps the Dvorak concerto being the best ever written for the instrument.

Dover's edition is put together well. Clear printing, score lays flat, and once again, how can you beat the price? Recommended for anyone that loves these... more info

In Search of Wagner
from Verso
Price: $13.50

Customer Review:

The European emigre writer Adorno is a major mid 20th century author identified with the Frankfurt School of social criticism. Although this School is usually described as having a Marxist perspective, the social criticism of Adorno is not doctrinaire or propagandistic. Adorno's writings--as this... more info
