Book Description

Excerpt from Face to Face With Great Musicians Each name in the whole history of music conjures up for me a living personality, with whom I may in the silences of solitude, converse in no mistakable manner. It is no dead, empty-sounding word for me to see the name of a composer on a program; each number that is to be heard is a key Which unlocks for me a stage on Which is reenacted a scene from the drama of a man's life. In these little meetings face to face with great musicians, I have tried to make it possible for the most unlearned novice in music to enter the inner circle of musical creators and interpreters.
