The essential companion to musical London This compact and
convenient guide to music in London features the sites where music
has flourished and where leading musicians have lived or performed
in the city-from Handel's house to Berlioz's rooms, from cathedrals
and churches to recording studios and concert halls. It provides
historical information on auditoriums and opera houses, theatres,
conservatories, museums, libraries, galleries, graves, memorials
and statues, orchestras, music publishers, auction houses, and
places of musical interest in the greater London area. The book
includes biographical accounts of some 125 composers and musicians
who inhabited or visited London. The book offers interesting
musical walks, a historical overview, and the most thorough account
yet published of musical compositions evoking London. Boxes within
the text present information on such topics as the music Wagner
conducted in London in 1855, the organists and choirmasters of the
cathedrals, and Gershwin's recording sessions. With maps,
bibliography, web addresses, information on transport and access,
and an extensive index, this unique compilation is enhanced with
many striking illustrations.
