Three volumes in the acclaimed Notes On series about the life and
key works of the world's greatest composers.
Music is at the very heart of Christian worship. The great
composers speak to us in ways that words often cannot. Bach's
impact is immeasurable. Renowned music critic Conrad Wilson
illuminates the music of some of history's greatest composers in
relation to their lives and perspectives. In each 'Notes On...'
volume, Wilson selects 20 crucial works of a given composer,
discusses each masterpiece with insight, wit and verve and tells us
why these works are fundamental to understanding the composer.
Permeating these pages are Wilson's vast musical expertise and his
colourful, succinct, polished prose style. Meant for any general
reader interested in music, these guidebooks are ideal for dipping
into as well as reading straight through.
The author selects Beethoven's 20 most crucial works, tells you why
he has selected them and why they are fundamental to our knowledge
and understanding of the composer. He guides the reader through
Beethoven's life, looking afresh at his status and exploding the
myths. He also points the reader to the best recordings ever made
of these crucial works.
