"The Gifted Listener" is a book for the music lover, who hasn't any
musical skills. This small volume is about classical music and it's
composers. It is simple and easy to read, with just enough detail,
not to be confusing to the non-musician.
The author has a special insight into classical music, difficult
even for a musician to understand.
In this small work a goodly amount of territory covering
composers, their music and personal experiences in creative
listening is covered. It is Sardo's opinion that listening is as
creative as performing, regardless of age and background.
It is Michael Sardo's hope that "The Gifted Listener" will
eventually be suggested reading in high school and Junior College
musical appreciation classes. The author feels that his book should
be considered for reading even in specialized secondary schools,
which concentrate in all areas of performing arts. There are many
excellent comprehensive music reference books on the market for
serious students of music to study and read. What makes "The Gifted
Listener" unique is the way that it treats musical listening in
everyday language. The beauty of this book is that it makes
classical music come alive, and at the same time is intimate to
one's daily emotions. It is hoped that this book will encourage
those that have not been touched with musical capability to
continue on a joyful journey in creative listening, such as the
author has traveled.
