Haven't read that. I will seek it out. I know very little of the biographical details of composers' lives before Schoenberg, Berg and Webern as I don't like to read a very technical anaysis of music and a lot of classical music writing seems to lean that way.


No fear on that front with the Schonberg book, dreadfully gossipy and consequently a hoot. The chapter on Richard Wagner, while acknowledging his genius, is a comedy classic.

Got the Lebrecht book. On display right by the door of the libary in the "recommended reading" section. Bless them.
