(Amadeus). Everyone loves to laugh, to wonder, and to be amazed.
High Notes and Low presents interesting and unusual anecdotal
information about classical music and musicians in a down-to-earth,
easily readable form. Free of technical jargon, the book is
appealing not only to the musician but to the general reader as
well, and offers information that all can enjoy. The book is
divided into six sections that provide general categories of
anecdotes Composers, Performers, Critics, Conductors, Compositions,
and This and That and encompasses information from all periods of
music history. Whether it's camels onstage during the performance
of an opera, a conductor's faux pas with a queen, an enraged wife
burning her husband's only copy of a symphony, or a look into the
many complexities of the Metropolitan Opera building at Lincoln
Center, readers will find a vast assortment of fascinating,
unexpected, and often unusual facts to keep them enthralled. No
other book on the market provides such a wide, enthusiastic, and
all-encompassing look into the facts and foibles of classical
music. Originally designed for broadcast on KLRE-FM, Arkansas'
premier classical music station, High Notes and Low proves that the
world of the classical musician is indeed a wonderful, and
sometimes zany, place to visit
