Today, 16-18 Beak Street is a burger bar, but don't let the muddy
grey of the whitewashed oak walls deceive you. This building was
once filled with dancing showgirls in glitzy costumes, performing
to over 100 people a night. For this corner of Soho once housed
Murray's Cabaret Club; night after night it forged fantasies for
deadened aristocrats, served dishes of dreams to Arab businessmen,
and provided refuge for hounded celebrities. Founder Percival
'Pops' Murray introduced London to the 'Cabaret Floorshow', hiring
an army of dancers, musicians and seamstresses to make sure that
everything was perfect - from the dancers' painted nails and
intricate costumes, to the polished wood walls and the gleaming
glass stage. However, the spell was broken in 1963 when the Profumo
Scandal erupted - a love triangle between a Murray's showgirl,
Britain's Minister of War, and a Soviet spy, all at the height of
the Cold War. Here, Benjamin Levy tells the story of Murray's
founding and the tales of the dancers both before and after their
time at the club, the work that went into the shows and - in
dazzling photographs and designs - reveals the recently discovered
costumes that were worn in London's most glamorous floorshow.

Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony, a masterpiece that has influenced
virtually every Western composer since its premiere, has become
associated with the marking of momentous public occasions. In 1989,
Chinese students played its finale through loudspeakers in
Tiananmen Square, and Leonard Bernstein led a performance in Berlin
to celebrate the razing of the Berlin Wall. This lively and
up-to-date book focuses on Beethoven’s Ninth, exploring the
cultural and musical meanings that surround this powerful work of
genius. David B. Levy sets the scene with a brief survey of
nineteenth-century Germanic culture and society, then analyzes the
Ninth symphony in detail with special emphasis on the famous choral
finale. He discusses the initial performances in 1824 under
Beethoven’s direction and traces the symphony’s critical
reception and legacy. In the final chapter of the book, Levy
examines interpretations of the work by prominent conductors,
including Wagner, Mahler, and Weingartner. A fully annotated
discography of selected recordings completes this comprehensive
volume.
