IN and OUT of TUNE - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

This book complements Robert Ponsonby’s earlier Musical Heroes, essays about some of the musicians – among them Jacqueline du Pré, Yehudi Menuhin and Mstislav Rostropovich – he knew during his career as an administrator in music and the performing arts. In and Out of Tune supplies an autobiographical context for these essays. Some reviews of Musical Heroes: “This delightful book…” (Gramophone) “… a generous testament to the many classical music celebrities he has encountered…” (Scotsman) “Ponsonby’s essays sum up a golden era of music-making” (Financial Times) “… a lovely gallery of portraits… a long interview with Pierre Boulez about conducting: this alone is a commendation for the book” (Classical Music) “Witty, entertaining and beautifully written…” (Amazon.co.uk)
