First published in 1936, Calvocoressi's and Abraham's study was the
first complete account of its subject to appear in any language,
including Russian, and was based on a large amount of original
first-hand research. Over 75 years later "Masters of Russian Music"
retains its power - as any study of Tchaikovsky, Mussorgsky,
Rimsky-Korsakof, Scriabin, Borodin "et al "really ought to, since
these were composers whose extraordinary musical accomplishments
still left room in their lives for all manner of other interesting
(and sometimes eccentric) activities. The portraits in this volume
are scholarly, authoritative, and highly lively - as befitting the
eminent talents under discussion.
